Windows 10: (Dell g7 15) Why does my D drive randomly appear and disappear

So I’ve had my laptop for over a year now, all drivers and updates updated (as far as I know) and the d drive constantly disappears until I restart the laptop, and then shortly disappears again.

Is there any fix to this, because honestly it’s making me just want to buy an actual pc instead and I can’t download any big games because I have to use my c drive.

If you can help me, thank you so much
