Only see 1 hard drive

[RockiLocky]

Hey guys,

 

As the title states I only see 1 hard drive and that is the one where my windows is installed on ;D.

 

But I have2 other hard drives a SSD 1TB and a HDD 2TB but windows is not picking them up ;D.

 

I do see them both in the BIOS. Although the HDD is not shown with 2TB but with no space at all 

 

Hope you boys can help me ouit ;D

Open Disk Management and make sure the drives have at least one partition on them. Create a simple volume if they don't and Windows should pick them up.

In disk manager 1 disk has 499mb and the other one 99MB any solution to that because tahts not their real space

Can you post a screenshot of disk management? (Windows has a built in utility called snipping tool.)

So I see the OS drive and the 1TB, so I assume Disk 0 is your missing 2TB. Have you tried it in a different SATA port w/ a different DATA Cable? Before that, post a screenshot of device manager w/ the disk drives section expanded.

I did not yet but I can try. And yes the 2TB WD Black HDD is missing. How can I get the disk drives section expanded.

 

And I maybe fforgot to tell you that before but it does recognize the WD Black HDD

 

And I know this is a bit offtopci again, but do you think AI Suite 3 is vaiable for overclocking my cpu and gpu a bit? I dont need over the top overclock just a stable slight overclock. Or should I use something else for the GPU got THE GPU Tweak 2 rn.

AI Suite tends to pump more voltage than needed, so you'd be better off manually OCing it.

You can use MSI Afterburner or Precision XOC to bump up the GPUs. I usually push my 1080 Tis to 2050 (2100 when benchmarking), but YMMV, so start small and go from there.

I did check my cable and my supply of power. Even changed them.

 

Nothing changed. I still see the HDD in my bios, but with 500M. I still see it in device manager. and still same problem for disk management. 

 

Any ideas?

 

EDIT:

 

It doesnt even show up in Windows anymore. Neither in disk management nor in device manager. Furtheremore it doesnt show up when I use command prompt go: list diskneither shows up there

 

it doesnt show up in bios anymore either

 

Edit 2: Got it to show up in bios under boot with the 2tb but not showing up in windows at all

No prob. You don't by any chance have another system to test the drive in, do you?

I actually do have one in the basement. But I dont think it will work because:

 

i used the sata and power cables from my ssd and it still didnt work so it must b the drive imo but i will try it out

thx for the help again ^^
