[SOLVED] HDD not working?

[Gastaldo5]

Hello, I currently am using an SSD and I have an old 2TB HDD but when I plug it in to use it and reboot the PC, it just loads at my bios and freeze. Is there something wrong with the HDD or can I somehow get make my BIOS boot off the SSD and wipe the HDD to get it to start working again?

I think there's a pretty good chance something is wrong with the HDD as it should not freeze in the BIOS. It's possible the HDD is "hung up" and maybe tapping it will get it to work....but if tapping it gets it to work....you don't want to use it....you want to get your files off of it ASAP.
