Greetings people, today i write because suddendly a got a problem with my new gaming built and heres the story:

2 months ago i built a new gaming PC, and only saved from my old pc the 1TB HDD Seagate Barracuda to be used as secondary disk, was working fine because and i use it to install games and only had 3 installed, the disk its almost empty, but today i was transfering an 8gb file from my other external HDD (an WD Passport 1TB) and in the middle of the process i got an error message that said "counlt find the destination volume"... i took a look at "my pc" and all partitions dissapeared, even 1 from my main SSD (the one that creates Win7 for system data). also took a look on disk management and i can only see the main SSD.

After that i restart the computer because i remember this happened like two weeks ago but only dissapeared the 2nd disk partitions not all... but my surprice was that windows took a lot of time to load..like 1 min or more and still... the drives doesnt appear, after that i took a look on BIOS and is not there...

What can i do? please help.

CPU: AMD Phenom II 960T (Stock)
MB: Asus Crosshair Formula Z
RAM: Gskill Sniper 1866mhz 16GB
GPU: Asus R9 290 Direct CU II

The problem got fixed, and i found this is happening sometimes when i'm transfering files too big (like 20gb), maybe the HDD gets hot or something because when i turn on the pc at nght and start over in the morning its ok
