  1. Two internal drives don't show up after reinstalling Windows 10


    So I just reinstalled Windows 10 on my computer and my computer only recognizes one of my three internal drives, the one with my OS on it. I went on device manager and it shows them, and in their properties it says that "This device is working properly."

    However, when I go anywhere else on my computer, including disk management they don't show up.

    What do I need to do to get these drives working? They were working before I did a fresh install of Windows.

    Internal drives not showing after reinstall


    I've done a reinstall of Windows 10 today. I unplugged my internal storage HDD's to isolate the SSD for the install, wiped the SSD, and reinstalled 10.

    Now it's installed, I've plugged my 2 internal HDD's back in, started up Windows, and neither drives are showing. Neither in device manager or in Explorer. What could be the issue here, and how do I resolve it?

    Any advice is much appreciated.

    Check in Disk Management to see if they've been assigned Drive Letters.
