Hello
I recently installed a new M.2 SSD after realising my new 3TB HDD was a 5400RPM drive and running way too slow for my needs. Following the install (which was messy as I didn't unplug any of the other drives etc which made the process much more painful) my third drive, which is a 2TB Seagate Barracuda is not being detected anywhere (BIOS, device manager etc) and I am unsure on what the issue is, it was working perfectly fine up until I installed Windows on my M.2. I have tried reconnecting the SATA on the side of the MOBO and the power/SATA connector from the harddrive. Any further suggestions to troubleshooting and fixing the issue (that does not involve losing the data on the 2TB drive) would be greatly appreciated.
System specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
AMD RX 590
Adata XPG SX8200 Pro NVMe PCIe M.2 1TB
Kingston A400 240GB
Seagate Barracuda 3TB
Seagate Barracuda 2TB(Problem drive)
Kingston HyperX DDR4 16GB
