    Lost SATA HDD and SATA DVD after Windows 10 update


    I have lost a secondary SATA HDD and SATA DVD drive after a Fast Ring Windows 10 Build update. Both the missing drives are on the same SATA channel.


    They DO show up in BIOS, but they do NOT show in either Windows Explorer or Windows Disk Management.


    Was it the Windows 10 update that did this, or did they coincidently die?


    What can I do to fix this? All of my personal data and backups are on the missing HDD. I have tried running 3rd party diagnostic tools, but they do not find the missing drives; neither SATA HDD or SATA DVD.

    :)

    SATA internal HDD and external SATA HDD

    I have a SATA internal HDD that supposed to be my main operational disk but I bought a "lay flat docking station" for Another SATA internal HDD that I cloned from my internal drive on my tower. But now I look at the properties on both drives and they both
    say they are online. Is it bad to have them working that way because I don't know what drive is working at any given time? I'm assuming I need to go into the BIOS and set it to which drive I want?

    SATA internal HDD and external SATA HDD

    using a USB makes it a external drive to the system. suggest that you do some research on USB vs SATA.

    Lost SATA HDD and SATA DVD after Windows 10 update

    SATA internal HDD and external SATA HDD

    I don't understand, the external drive isn't actually an external drive, it's a SCSI SATA disk drive in a lay flat docking station connected by a USB 3.0 cable. The docking station did clone the "C" drive ok. So, isn't it just like as if the SCSI SATA
    drive was in the tower just like the original "C" SCSI disk drive but not hooked up to the SATA data cable?
