Hello all. I have an issue with my hard drive not being detected in the BIOS. I have reset my CMOS, I have disconnected all other drives then booted, you name it, i probably tried it and no luck. It just takes me right to my BIOS config. I have a Gigabyte GA-H270-HD3 Mobo with 3 HDD and 1 SSD; none of which are the issue. It happened after it powercycled during Windows 10 boot up. I am trying to avoid reinstalling Windows 10 at all costs because my internet is extremely slow. Thanks

Try testing the drives in another system. If they work and you can see the files on them then something is wrong with your motherboard. Maybe the motherboard SATA controller somehow died. Please post your complete system specs for further advice.


Yes, all of the drives do remain spinning after POST. I have plugged in my Mobo diagnostic chip and it's not hanging on an error code so I know it's not the mobo. And it doesn't even detect my SSD if I remove all three HDDs and vice versa, per drive
