    Internal HDD suddenly not recognized


    It's a 2T internal HDD , I have a 500G SSD that still works but I have no idea what else to do. It has been fine for the past two years.


    HDD does not show up in BIOS

    I have tried connecting other saga cables and checked to make sure everything is plugged in snugly.

    Disk management , shows up as Disk 0, unknown, not initialized and has no data on the size. I am unable to initialize it here

    Device Management, it shows up as unknown device, but no information as to the size etc. It does say healthy and the only thing I can find is in properties > events >device not migrated.

    Drivers are updated

    I tried to assign a letter to the HDD


    Did I miss anything? I'm stumped and could really use some advice if you have the time.

    :)

  3. URGENT HELP NEEDED! HDD suddenly became blank!

    Hey there, @Shamonto Hasan Easha!

    I'd try re-plugging the hard drive and checking if the cable is damaged. I'd also suggest to try plugging the drive in another computer and see if it gets recognized properly there. Is it a IDE or SATA drive you're using?
    If the drive is unallocated, this means that the partition has been lost after the power went down.
    Check out this thread for more ideas on how to solve the issue. There are some detailed steps there that might be useful for you:
