Hello All,
So currently I run Windows off of a 1TB MX300 and I use some SSD's in RAID 0 for general games etc. While I don't really record my gameplay I do like the idea of having shadowplay running just incase, so rather than having it write to the SSD's I have been using an old 500GB WD5000BPKT (2.5" WD Black Drive), I also used it for downloads for a period where I only had the MX300. It was connected using a USB3.0 to SATA adaptor, I have subsequently lent that to a friend and now I need to use a file on the drive that was stored in the downloads.
I have 6 SATA ports so I connected it using the last available one did a bit of 'cable management' and booted in... The drive was not recognised anywhere in Windows (Device manager, Disk Manager or Windows Explorer), however it was correctly displayed in the BIOS.
I have tried swapping ports and cables on the SATA to no avail, I can feel the drive is spinning and I am very sure it still must work as I had it plugged in via. USB less than a week ago.
My understanding is that I can reset BIOS, however I would rather not as I have all my overclocks stored in there so even if it did work I would probably go without and just load up the old BIOS backup, does anyone have any ideas?
Many Thanks
