I'm having an issue where I'm only able to see one drive in bios at a time, my SSD (which windows 10 is installed on) and my HDD. The sata slot my SSD is currently plugged into is the only one which shows a drive. When I look in my computer I can't see my HDD but I can see it in device manager and computer management (which shows it as correctly formatted).
How do I fix this?
 
Solution
We're assuming your SSD is your boot drive and you can boot to the OS without any problem there.
So your HDD functions (or should function) as a secondary drive for storage, backup, etc. purposes, right?
In Disk Management, does the HDD bear a drive letter? If not, that's the problem. Assign a drive letter to the drive.
