Windows 10: Problem with HDD drive D:

Hello, I am having a situation with my HDD, so I was doing some partitions when I accidentally deleted/removed my HDD. My laptop is running Windows 10 Home, in my BIOS it says that there are two disks my SDD and HDD, on device manager it also founds the two disks installed but on disk management it's not showing both of them, I have tried different things I have found online but cannot seem to fix it.On disk management when I right-click on Disk 0 it does give me the option of converting to Basic or to MBR but it pops an error saying operation not allowed since the disk is offline. I have used

Lost D drive

Ghot. Fiddling with BIOS is not in my wheelhouse but I searched every line and couldn't find any reference to the HDD. In the SATA column I found the Samsung 250GB and the CD-DVD but no HDD listed. Couldn't find anything in other columns at all.

Jumanji. Yes, I plugged in an external drive via USB and it came up as "F" drive as it usually does. I transferred 20 odd games this morning from F to D with both folders open on the screen. There was no apparent problem then.
I downloaded the driver clean up and ran it as you suggested but it did not fix the problem.
