Troubles installing kingston ssd in mbp mid '10

Hi guys

I really hope, that somebody in here are able to help me.

I've just bought a Kingston V200 ssd, as the other hdd died the other day -.-

The problem is, that my mac cannot detect the ssd disc as a internal drive no matter what i do.

Using the SSD as a external disc, i have formatted the disc to Mac OS Journaled extended, installed ML, cloned a image from another disc, tried to reset NVRAM

But none of these things makes it possible to detect the ssd as a internal drive .. :/

So... At this point i am clueless to what i should do next to solve the problem.. One of my thoughts are, that i might have another hardware problem? or that the kingston ssd is simply no compatible with my mbp ?

In any case, i hope one of you guys out there, are able to help me

The problem may not be with the SSD since you seem to be able to use it as an external drive. You may have a defective SATA ribbon cable which goes from the drive connector to the logic board. Try changing out that cable. Directions for changing the cable can be found at iFixit: The free repair manual. Have your model number on hand when you look up the directions.

We've seen many cases of that cable being defective. The cable undergoes a lot of heat and becomes brittle over time, and easily breaks.

I found out, that the problem wasn't with the ssd, i tried mounting it, in my gilfriends mbp, which is also a mid '10, booting just fine -.-

But I'll try to change the sata cable - do you know where i can buy one ?
