The problem with installing windows (and not only) on an ssd drive, how to solve?

I'll start from afar. My father stopped running Windows on his computer (displays an error window -> reboot -> diagnostics -> error) in such a cycle. I decided to demolish it and reinstall it (the reinstallation experience is not small, I just reinstalled it 10-15 times and faced various problems).
As usual, I created a flash drive with an image, made it in mbr because the computer is not the newest. I started the installation, but in the middle of the installation I got an error error 0x800701b1. After that, the ssd disappeared from the BIOS altogether, I turned it off - connected it and it appeared again, the error repeated. After that, I took this ssd to my computer, everything is the same, then I inserted it into the laptop, the results are the same. I tried both in MBR and GPT, tried in uefi and legacy, anci and ide, the results are the same. At the same time, when I inserted this ssd into the computer (under the Windows of my computer), it was there like a disk and you could even see the half-installed Windows files.
Then I tried to install ubuntu, the installation freezes at the stage of creating some kind of partition and no errors, but it took an unrealistically long time (I usually installed ubuntu very quickly). I don't know what to do with it

Connect the drive directly to a desktop computer, and if it is visible at least in the BIOS (or as a device in Windows), check the SSD with R.tester: https://rlab.ru/tools/rtester.html
Start by looking at SMART, and if there is no important data on the SSD (judging by the reinstallations, no), then do read and write tests. The write test destroys everything irrevocably.
The graphs will show the state of the memory, they can be made as detailed as possible.
But disk failures are already a bad sign. The best option would be to hand it over under warranty already on the basis of this. You should not trust such a drive.

So what are the options here? If you look at a single computer, then there are four suspects:
1) The ssd itself
2) Connection (cable and connectors)
3) Motherboard
4) Power supply
Test everyone separately with other components known to be good.
But if I understood the description correctly, then ssd was buggy on the original computer, on another computer and on another laptop?
In this case, he, in my opinion, is the most-most prime suspect. Is dying...

most likely the ssd is dead. 99% well or sata cable

I agree with the answers above, 99% in the SSD itself, if somehow it turns out to put something on it, you need to check it immediately, but for an accurate understanding, try to put Windows on your father's computer on another ssd, if everything is ok - the old ssd has come to an end
