HELP! MY DRIVES

[nixtone]

Hey guys something is going on.

I restarted my PC and 2 out of my 5 drives are not being detected my windows.

In bios they are there and in programs such such as crystal disk mark they are there however they have no drive letter.

In device manager they're listed as Intel Raid Volume 0 and 1.

WTF! They're normal drives, does someone know how to help? I've got serious stuff on them

They're not in windows disk management either

 

 

Thanks

I did I switched one from the good one to one of the bad ones and it's the same! Drives are the same

"did you try turning it off and on again?"

maybe restarting agian will help, or have you already tried that?

[Thermosman]

Do you have another pc you can put them in?

Yep! Tried twice. Power cables are in firmly. Detected in bios

Can you take out the two drives and test them in a different computer?

was the bad one still bad or did a good one become bad?

if the good one became bad, it may be the sata connector on the mobo

Bad one still bad, everything stayed the same

I downloaded intel storage technology

got an instant message saying data is at risk

turned off pc as I’m on phone now going to test on other system and I heard a grinding noise and clicks...

drive failure maybe, but two at once???

Ok the hard drives work in another computer...

Ok I fixed it! I ran driver booster earlier tonight and it fucked with the drives, did a system restore to like 3-4 hours ago and it's fine

I'd personally stay away from stuff like Driver Booster. Especially with Windows 10, updating your drivers is so easy you don't need third party bloatware.

 

Glad to hear you got them back
