If the hard drive can't be detected in the BIOS, and you know you have it connected probably, that would be a physical issue and it has to be repaired or replaced. Possibly the system board or connection.

Hi there lordah,

I would totally agree with hang-the-9.

In case your HDD is not recognized by BIOS, you will not be able to access it with software tools.
One thing you can try is to double check the connection. You can use different cables(both SATA and power ones) and attach it to another SATA port.
In case the issue persists and the drive is a new one, I believe you can either contact the place you got it from or the manufacturer's Support.

Hi

Try below methods to view your unrecognized hard drive:

1. Open command prompt and write wmic logicaldisk then enter. By doing this all present logical drives will appear on the command prompt Windows.

2. Plug the USB drive into another USB port, might be problem is with the USB port

3. Connect the drive into another computer, there is possibility that the problem is with the computer not with the hard drive

4. Last resort which I know is show hidden device, just go to control penal -> click on Device Manager -> after this click on show hidden device on the top menu of device manger windows

Hope any one solution from above can help you!!

man what do u mean by usb drive? do u mean an external drive?

Yeah, if the drive is not recognized by BIOS and Disk Management on two machines, then the drive has failed. So, you can RMA it if it is under warranty.

Not the computer motherboard, I meant the system board on the hard drive.

i tried another hard disk to format but it happen again ,,,,, while on formatting my pc said that the device can be found, please specified a device,,, means it cant read my hd again... is it my motherboard?

That is really strange. As your previous HDD was doing the same thing even when attached to another system, then there should have been something wrong with the HDD.

Have you tried using different cables(both SATA and power ones)? It may be a good idea to try that. Also, you can use another port.
Check if it is recognized and how under Disk Management, Device Manager and BIOS.(when using different cables and ports)
