SSD Dissapears after Sleep

After I installed my new SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD, it always disappeared from as a drive after I woke up my computer from sleep. This doesn't happen if I restart the computer though, so it's tied to sleep somehow. Only way it appears other than restarting the comp is if I Rescan Disks from Disk Management. Doing that it just pops in instantly and has no issue until I put the computer to sleep again. My SATA driver is the most recent one from the ASUS motherboard page.

Check that you have PCIE LSPM Off in your power Scheme , this is common with SSD's so I always turn it off now . It used to be in the Intel RST Software too if you use it ? haven't checked that lately.

Thanks Kbird, ill do it and report back.

swarfega - yea boot up is quick. I have a M.2 ssd for OS, but sleep is still pretty much instant so I rather find a fix then just reboot each time. The SSD in question is just for games though.

Kbird - PIE LSPM was off, so that's probably not it.

Did you check the Performance Tab of the Intel RST Program too ?

You arent allowing HDD/SSD's to Sleep are you ? also in the Power Scheme at the very top. Perhaps the firmware on the SSD just isn't waking it properly from idle if so.
