Corrupt drive, Partition not active in Windows 10. I've been having problem with my hdd. One of the partition hdisappear sometimes and is not active it doesn't show the size or anything, i'm not able to access the drive also. I've installed Windows 10 on the SSD (128gb). I tried formatting the drive, changing drive letter, splitting the drive which resulted in both the drives getting corrupted. Please help guys

Solution
so you mean the HDD will get corrupted completely ??
Error comes when i install games on that partition, download movies, work on ps etc rest of the partition looks fine no issues so far from those
It has "Relocated sectors" and that means some sectors went bad because of damage to platter(s) and it's high possibility more will appear soon. Firmware tried to relocate data from damaged part to a healthy part but it's not possible to transfer all data, hence the problems and corruption.
