**Error Summary**
The D: drive encountered issues during initial setup. After installation of new fans and reorganizing cables, the system booted normally but later developed a D: Drive Error. The computer ran at full speed on Windows Disk 1 for 30 minutes before becoming unresponsive. Shutting down and disconnecting the drive resolved the problem. The issue occurred after updating hardware and software, suggesting a possible driver or compatibility problem.

Check if booting from the problematic drive works. Use Crucial's SSD tool on it and note its findings. Displaying the complete SMART report via CrystalDiskInfo can provide useful insights. A slow reading speed might indicate the drive is having trouble accessing data.

Sure, you can link the drive once it's fully booted. Just follow the steps to mount it during the setup process.

It doesn't appear to offer an easy way around. In BIOS you may be able to enable hot-plugged SATA drives, but I've encountered the opposite—turned it off by default, forcing me to disable it. Otherwise, you'd need a USB-SATA adapter, which would cost money. Edit: I checked eBay and found these options at a lower price now. I might need another if it offers better speed than my current USB 2 model. Edit 2: The converter used to switch between SATA and USB could block diagnostic tools from working.

Get details on a crystal disk, use a USB stick, upload the info if needed. You might not have a working SSD yet—turn off your PC while handling D:, as this could ruin everything and force a factory reset. Also, note that NAND drives are tough to recover data from.

I won’t bypass it. The BIOS didn’t show a hot-plug feature. Appreciate the USB-SATA adapter suggestion and your caution about potential issues.

I’m having trouble accessing the system because the D drive is connected. I’m not sure how to retrieve the crystal disk details. Also, I haven’t used WinPE before and don’t understand it well. Apologies for the confusion.

The noise seems unsettling and unpleasant. Still, it’s reassuring to have a backup plan in case I can’t control the computer for an extended period. Is there another method to pause or stop the process?

Reject fixing. Keep waiting until it completes, or discard the non-functional drive as it prevents startup.

I visited a computer store today. The technician attempted to connect it using a 4-pin adapter and a SATA cable but received no response—it wasn’t recognized at all. He also tried a USB adapter, which didn’t work either. Eventually, he connected it to their HDD setup. He found a product on Amazon that looked like this: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/IDE-SATA-USB-...B0CH37FQYX. After using it, he successfully accessed my data and copied the necessary files to a USB drive (around 5-6GB). He mentioned he had never encountered something like this before and was a bit confused. Once I’ve secured my data, I’ll send the drive to Crucial since it’s still under warranty and want their advice. Thanks for your assistance so far—I’ll keep you updated and share the outcome, hoping it helps others.
