I recently moved my drives into a new build and have come across an odd issue with one HDD. Whenever I put the computer into sleep, the drive does not appear when I wake the machine. It is not present in explorer, device manager, or disk management. It works completely fine the rest of the time, and as soon as I restart the machine the drive is visible again, both in BIOS and after start up.
It is a new drive and did not have any issues in the previous system and shows no disk errors when checked. I have 2 other HDDs and 1 SSD and none of those are affected. All legit internal drives, not shucked or anything.
The cables seem to be fine (I would assume if it was a cable issue I'd see other problems anyway?) and I don't think it's the drive itself. So I'm thinking there must be a setting somewhere in the system or BIOS that affects it, but I cannot find it. Does anyone have any ideas?
The drive is a Toshiba X300 8TB. The other HDDs are 3TB - don't know if the larger size is a factor.
My motherboard is a Gigabyte H610M H. BIOS Version FD.
Windows 10 Home build 19044
