I have seen this most recently with Crucial brand SSDs, which by and large have proven to be a good value - when they work. Occasionally a BIOS update on the computer or a firmware update to the drive can resolve the issue, but other times, the drive may simply be incompatible. This applies most notably to sleep/resume and cold boot detection of these devices, which sometimes are not detected at all on specific systems.

A relatively new form of problem which has been introduced by the wider adoption of solid-state drives (and other drives with more particular power requirements than standard mechanical hard drives) is that of drive detection and compatibility.
