    Harddisk failure or not? Windows can't see it, hwinfo can see it


    I've tried the pool function in windows,and after a month something happened.
    Read errors occured, and I finally found ut that a drive was "error" (that's all, no warning or anything, I had to manually check the pool configuration to see this)

    I suspected that the drive had crashed.

    Now to the strange part (according to me), that Hwinfo have found and identified the hardisk that's supposedly crashed, and as far as I can see, it should work..

    Windows Disk Managment can't see it, msdos wmic can't see it and powershell Get-WMIObject win32_physicalmedia | Format-List Tag,SerialNumber command can't see it either..
    so, is the drive broke or is something else messing something up?

    following is the hwinfo readout from the failed drive:
    HTML Code:
    ..and I'm only more confused, how can hwinfo see and read data, and also say that it should working..
    the Spindle motor and head fly motor is negative, but another (same model & working hd) also displays negative numbers..

    Now, this computer isn't at my place, so I've only examinated it via vnc, but I'm little lost here..

    :)
