Problem with Cloudspeed 1000 "SDLFGD7R-480G-1HA1"

I have this old SSD sitting around that I want to use on a new computer I got.

I had it working once on my mom’s Mac Mini, but she didn’t like it (I forget the exact issue), so she made me take it back!

I think I enabled TRIM on the volume and that might have been a mistake, I can’t remember.

On Sandisk SSD Dashboard 2.7.0.0 it says:

Model: SDLFGD7R-480G-1HA1

Firmware Version: ZN19MC49

Drive Health: Normal

Notifications: None

Security: ATA: Not Enabled

SATA Revision: 3.0,6 Gb/s

SATA Link Speed: 6.0 Gb/s

Serial Number: FG00B4PP

Maximum LBA: 937703087

WWN: 500117310027F454

4k Alignment: Yes

If I plug this into a SATA port on my Windows 10 computer, it seizes at bootup. It just sits there showing a flashing underline cursor!

So I got a USB adapter, booted into Windows, plugged into a USB port and got this information:

If I ask it to initialize disk (whether MBR or GPT), Windows 10 comes back with an error window that says, “incorrect function.”

If I ask it to run S.M.A.R.T. diagnostic short test, it comes back “The S.M.A.R.T. diagnostic test failed.”

Here’s some reports from SanDiskGuard:

I tried to upgrade firmware, the SSD dashboard says it’s up to date!

So I’m kind of at wit’s end, I don’t really understand all this information. Is there something I should do to reset it so I can format a volume on it?

THANK YOU in advance for helping me out!
