  1. My D drive has suddenly disappeared.


    I was browsing around on the internet and then my computer completely froze up, so I shut it down and when I started my computer back up, the D drive was suddenly gone. It doesn't show up in File Explorer, Disk Management, Device Manager or anything. I have tried re scanning my disks in disk management, and it didn't show up. The only time my D drive shows up is after I restart my computer, open up file explorer, then put my computer into sleep mode and then turn it back on, it will show up then, but I can't access it and soon after file explorer while freeze up for about 5 minutes and then it disappears again. Another thing is that computer now takes 5-9 minutes to start up, it didn't take this long before.


    Is there anyway I can get my D drive back without loosing all the data on it?

    :)

    All data from Drive D:/ disappeared or is not recognized


    Hello everyone

    I am using a ASUS ROG laptop with two drives: a SSD "C:/" called "OS" and a HDD "D:/" called DATA.

    After uninstalling 4 or 5 games from my laptop (properly, using the Applications list to uninstall), all my games, music, pictures, etc stored on drive D (DATA) suddenly looked to have disappeared. Steam is still working but all games show as uninstalled, Origin isn't even working at all anymore, all my music, videos etc can't be found and played anymore.

    When trying to play a mp3 from "recent files", it says that drive D is not available and the file can't be found.

    Drive D is still visible and can be opened but it appears almost empty, which shouldn't be the case. I think all my data is still there but can't be seen. I can still see all my Origin and Steam games in the Apllications list. It's like the data is not available or recognized anymore. The laptop runs fine (fast, no weird noises, no system error).

    Any suggestion? Thanks a lot!
