Question HDD not detected

[madmarcelo]

Hi,

I have just installed a new SSD (crucial mx500), cloned my HDD to the SSD using Acronis, powered down, unplugged the HDD, plugged the SSD in the same SATA port, and it rebooted on the SSD no problem. Then powered down, plugged the HDD in another SATA port, powered up, it booted on the SSD, but I can't see the HDD anymore (not in Device Manager or Disk Management).

Any idea?

Haven't actually unplugged the power to the HDD when first time booting with SSD (just unplugged the SATA). The replugged the SATA, and it's not here anymore.
