I was just simply using my laptop today, when I had to restart, due to my wifi screwing up, but once my laptop had finished rebooting and I login, I opened windows file explorer to find that my secondary hard drive was not there.
I have checked in the disk management and it only shows my primary SSD and my blu-ray drive.
I have very few ideas as to what my problem may be, but if someone could reply ASAP, that would be brilliant.
Thanks

Well, f you Windows 8. I don't know why, but apparently a system restore of my SSD fixed the problem. Go figure. If anyone else has this problem, then I suggest doing that too. If it doesn't show up in disk management or in bios after that, then it's something to do with the Disk itself. Hooray for Windows.
