D Drive Missing After Fragmentation

Hi,

As the title suggests, my D drive has gone missing after fragmentation.

I have tried to rescan disks in disk management, update driver in device manager, uninstalled recent windows updates but still unable to locate my D drive.

Based on event logs, it’s showing me event ID 51.

D drive was able to be fragmented on 1st May 2023 and on 2nd May onwards, it just went missing.

Any idea what else I could do?

Thank you!
