Windows 10: Event Log - Disk Error 51 - HDD became Empty till restart.

Okay i am really scared cause i have no clue what's going on.

I was just randomly checking my event logs, not cause anything was wrong but just looking at it.
And there was Tons of Disk errors.
"An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk0\DR0 during a paging operation.".

I searched on it and it all said some disk was bad, and i wondered what disk it might be, cause i havent' noticed anytihng and have been using all disks.

But then i noticed that one disk was completely empty, and i have used that like some day ago.
I panicked and tried scandisk, which just said "it's RAW", even though it basically showed it was NTFS, and it has the correct used space, but nothing was there.

CrystalDiskInfo showed no info on the disk if i remember correctly, at least no attributes, it was all blank down there.
I thought i needed to restart just to see if that helped anything.
And i did and now it's all back to normal.

But i am still scared to death, i don't know what caused it or what's going on.

I need suggestions on what i should do next*Sad

//Thanks

EDIT 1:

Before last thing that happened in the Event Log before those errors, which was this:

2016-04-17 1:18:43 AM "Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort1, was issued."
After that it was the page error thingy (which basically isn't the issue, the issue is worse cause the Disk itself was like blank but still there or something).
But it seems to have happened after that, from 2016-04-17 1:38:10 AM till restart 2016-04-18 1:28:24 AM.
So basically 24 hours.

I guess the RaidPort1 thingy might have something to do with it.
But i got no RAID, it's all in AHCI (IDE set to Enhanced before changing to AHCI,
cause if i disable IDE and change to AHCI no HDD is detected so i assume they are connected and the bios is just crap at showing it right).

This thing has never happened before as far as i know.
If i filter my Event Log for that Event ID (51) it also only shows from yesterday till today.
So i have no clue at all what triggered it as i don't think i have done anything special, and not with that drive which i don't touch that much.

SMART shows it's all fine (But i know that doesn't say much).
I don't know about the Read Error Rate, i think the Raw Values have changed but i am not sure.

EDIT 2:

Worth noting might be that i updated Windows 10 from having the First version to the latest available on 16-04-09.
Which in turns also reset the Event Log it seems.

Event ID: 51 An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 during a paging operation in Windows 10.

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

This Error event indicates that an error was detected on a physical hard disk during a disk paging operation. This problem occurs if an I/O operation to a hard disk is unsuccessful. If an I/O operation to a hard disk is unsuccessful, the Windows operating
system logs Event ID 51 in the System log.

I suggest you to refer the link below.

Hope is this helps.

Installing a new HDD to replace a HDD of the same size that failed.

I have a Windows 10 OS installed on my C: drive. I had data stored on an HDD designated as D: drive. That second drive failed and was replaced by a new HDD. Both are the same size and type of drives, except different manufactures. The new HDD is not
listed in File Explorer. It is listed in Computer Management under Device Manager as a Disk drive. Disk Management under Storage does not list the new HDD.

I have tested the new HDD with software downloaded from the manufacture and it has passed all tests. At least that software was able to access the new drive and perform low level tests to see if it is operational.

Looking at the events log for this HDD, I find an event warning that says "Device ... was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match." Opening up the properties indicates drivers have been installed. Reading the volume information results in: "Volume
information for this disk cannot be found"

I suspect that the problem with the volume information is associated with the warning in the event log. I removed the HDD, restarted the PC then shut it down to start the installation process over again. No change in the event log or status of the new
HDD. Can anyone suggest how I can get past that warning?

 

First thing to do is to Back Up all of your data to an external drive.

Maintain a good backup daily.

Don't worry about it. If it fails you have a good backup.

 

The disk that behaved weirdly is a backup drive of many other drives. Though all are internal as i dislike external drives.

 

Get a new Internal Drive and copy the data to it then.

You need to have an external backup plan to have safe data...

That message above was supposed to be sent way before, not sure why i didn't send it, and have been away on a trip and opened up the browser to see it still there:S

Anyhow, well will keep a close check on the drive,
need to reorganize some stuff that i lazily have on solely there cause of space.

And how i wish for SSD to go into the TB range fast so one no longer need to be bothered,
HDD progress is too slow for me!

 

I see a data disaster in your future unless to get a backup plan in place.

 

I got the data on 2 drives, it's the backup drive that behaved weirdly one time.
I don't really have place for any other drives sadly, my PC is fully used in terms of hdds*Sad
