Hello. A few days ago my PC crash and for some reason my second HDD crash too so I restarted my PC then windows start a repair on the drive after it repaired I checked my task manager and seems to be normal. But whenever I Copy or delete there is no window that says the percentage of the read or writes its just blink then the file appears. I checked the file and it seems okay so I try stressing it but on the task manager it has no movement of anything it just stays zero. I also try to game in the second HDD but it still has zero movements in the task manager is this normal?
 
What is full system spec and the OS?

You say "PC crashed". What happened exactly? A shutdown? A reboot? A BSOD? "Second HDD crashed too", how? What happened? It went offline? Any error messages?

You can use HD Sentinel or CrystalDiskInfo to check SMART health status of the drive. You can take screenshots of the drive's SMART info and upload and post link here.

Although if the copied files and games work properly on the suspected drive it's probably not a hardware issue and maybe an OS or corrupt files etc.

1.the file explorer is not responding so I force it to shut down and windows start repairing me HDD

2.i cannot access my second HDD and it sometimes disappear on the drive list
it does not display any error messages

1. That can be a sign of corrupt files/allocation tables (might be solved if not a hardware issue).

2. The drive disappearing with no errors might indicate a bad SATA power or data cable, reseating or replacing cables might help.

3. I can't see imgur posts as I think the service is blocked where I am. If possible please upload the photo/screenshot to google drive or Dropbox.

4. Slow loading might also be because of what I said above.

Important Note: Last but not the least, I wasn't able to see that image (screenshot of one of the applications I said earlier?).

If that image is indeed a screenshot and if there are any pending or reallocated sectors or uncorrectable errors that means the drive has/will have bad sectors and is failing. It can work for a few month or it can totaly fail next time you open a folder/file explorer. Backup all important data from the drive/drives as soon as possible. Before any scanning or testing that would mean more stress/pressure on a failing drive.
