Windows 10: disk drive not picking up disk

i have windows10 and when I put in a disk it doesn't read it. how can I fix this

:)

 

Checking Disk Consistency

Ok i did as viper suggested, but it stops checking at stage 3. It is still saying the drive is dirty, and still needs to be checked. I did a defrag and a disk cleanup, and suggestions?

Hi,





To assist on your disk drive issue, please clarify the following:

• 
  Did you get an error message when the disk drive refused to read the inserted disk?
  
• 
  Have you tried updating the disk drive's driver?
  
• 
  What
  other troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

Disk management console view is not up-to-date

i dont know how to fix your disk management, but i can fix your partition problems...




open up Command Prompt with admin rights. (Right click, run as admin)


enter in
DISKPART
list disk

then find the Disk number for your Raid array... lets call it number 7 ( you can tell what disk is what by the total size)
type in

Select Disk 7
List Partition (will give you a list of all the partitions..)
Select Partition 1 (im assuming you only have 1 partition on Disk 7) repeat this step if you have more partitions.
ASSIGN


that should get the array up and running ready to use.


EDITED.

any problems, post back ^^


Still EDITING *Stick Out Tongue

side question, have you tried restarting the PC?
