Hey people,
I have a huge problem:
I recently had a power outage, and after that my Computer no longer wanted to boot. I had windows on an NVMe SSD.
Now I installed Windows on a different Drive in order to check out what is wrong with this drive.
Originally I was able to see the two partitions on the drive but when I tried to look at any data I got the Error message "E:/H: is not accessible. Incorrect function"
Since the drives have disappeared from the Windows Explorer. They are however, still in Disk Management, and in diskpart of the command promt. (see Screenshots)

I have tried a few third party softwares, but nothing worked.
Right now I don't even have any hopes for my data, and only want my drive to work again, but I am at a loss which is why I come to you.
I tried to Format or delete the drive from the Disk Management window and diskpart (see screenshot) but it doesn't work.

Do any of you have any ideas?

Please help :/

Looks like the poweroutage killed the partition. This happens ocassionally.

 

Do you have backups? Restore those.

 

Otherwise make a image and try some recovery tools.

Recovery tools never seem to find the drive.
Also as I said I don't really care for a backup, I just want the drive formatted and working again.
It being broken is what I am worried about right now.

make a image first and recovery from the image, never try to do the drive its self.

 

Do you have a backup?

 

If you do care about the data, just format the drive.

 

Its probably fine, just format it if you want to use it again.

I can't format it - look at my screenshots or even read what I wrote.

Maybe try doing so in another system?

I don't have another computer with an M.2 slot. But I might try a PCIe adaptor however, I don't think anything would change.

I care about the drive, not the data on it


Also I had to void the warranty about a year ago.
