    My internal drives disappeared after the update.


    So after the update, my drives disappeared.

    They were there for a while when I first rebooted after the update.

    I watched a movie, played games and everything was cool.

    Then, I watched another movie and upon closing my screen froze and my mouse started moving randomly, in a jittery fashion.

    I shut off my laptop and when I switched it on again, my drives were gone.


    I can't even find them in Disk Management thing.

    I apologies I am not tech savvy and am unfamiliar with many of the technical terms.

    SAVE ME! PLEASE! All my work is on them.


    I have EaseUS and they're are not there.

    I can still my OS drive is there but my other two, where I store almost everything else, are gone.

    :)

    CD/DVD drive disappears completely - worn out or internal issue?


    This is what Device Manager and File Explorer look like when the drive is not recognized. There is no CD/DVD drive listed whatsoever.
