A few weeks ago my second hard drive stopped showing up in "my computer". My motherboard only supports 2 at any given time and I usually will open up the case and plug in my 3ed one since it has movies on it. But one day when I went to plug in the 3ed drive it wouldn't show up.
The second drive used to be my main hard drive, but I've deleted everything on it and now it just has my main drive's boot files on it, so i don't want to restart my computer in case it isn't able to boot. (I deleted everything on the drive manually without formatting, including windows files. But it was still able to boot my main drive and I wasn't able to format it.)
It's not just my second hard drive though, it's my 3ed one as well, none of them show up in my "this PC" folder
When I open up disk management, the disk shows up, but I'm not sure what to do to make it accessible without corrupting the boot files.
Here's a screenshot of my drives in Disk Management:
Disk 0 is the one with my boot files and disk 1 has my operating system on it.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
