    Why won't my hard drive show up under my computer?

    Can you show me the steps of how to format the 1tb hdd for windows 7 64bit? How was I able to format ssd without doing anything to it. It recognized it like that.

    HDD won’t show in windows

    HDD won't show up

    So I've got an SSD drive for OS and storage, and a Toshiba DT01ACA200 2TB HDD for storage. I've been using these two on my system for over a year now without any problems.

    A few months now, my HDD does not appear after booting with Fast Boot or MSI Fast Boot. With normal boot it does appear on Windows Explorer and works fine, but if my pc goes to sleep, on wake, my HDD disappears again.
    When the HDD does not show up, in Device Manager it's listed as Unknown Device under the Disk Drive section. In Disk Management it shows up as Disk 1 (Unknown, Not Initialized), asking me to initialize it in MBR\GPT resulting in an error afterwards.

    Using my trusty stethoscope, with fast boot on, the HDD does not spin, resulting in a long boot screen and then logging into Windows with the HDD disabled.

    I've tried using different SATA cable and sata power cable but did not help. I tried installing an OS on the HDD and worked fine every time,plus, when using it as a storage drive, when it does appear, it seems to work fine.
    Any thoughts?

    I'm using
    Win 8.1x64
    MSI Z87 G45
    i5 4670k
    8 Gb Corsair Vengeance RAM
    MSI GTX 770
    EVGA G2 750W
