Hi,
So I shut down my computer(just to unplug/replug in my monitor as I moved the monitor) I normally keep my computer running all the time but on this shut down it seemed like it took a very long time. I did my thing with the monitor, and when I turned it back on, it took forever until finally I got a BSoD "Driver Power State Failure". It restarted itself and downloaded a bunch of things and then after a good half hour finally started working again.
Except that my 2nd Hard Drive is no longer found in My Compter or in Disk Management. The only thing there is my SSD that the OS is on.
I've checked the wiring on the Hard Drive and its still secure. (I also didnt move the computer or touch any of the internal components prior to the problem)
The Hard Drive also spins and starts up when the computer starts up and continues to run seemingly fine.
In BIOS I can see the SSD and something called hl-dt-st DVD+/ atapi but nothing else.
The computer is also taking an extraordinarily long time to start up. Getting stuck on the window's logo screen for a long time. (windows 10)
Sorry if this isnt the best place to ask this. I'm so stressed out and just need someone to point me in the right direction.
Thank you all so much!
