Hello,
Since 2013 i have a new system, an acer predator g5920 running Windows 10 Professional. Before that i had an older system, a quadcore with windows 7.
The harddrive from the windows 7 pc always worked fine and without any problems, never made weird noises, was never slow on reading files and maps.
Now the problem is that since that day, i've never got any access to the windows 7 disk. When i place the hdd in the hotswap bay it doesnt get detected by my windows 10 pc, though it does have issues with starting up, it boots up slower than normal, like it is trying to read which of the 2 windows system it should start up. After a minute or so it gives up and starts up windows 10 from the ssd. I check windows explorer, it is not detected. i check disk management, it is not detected.
It managed to detect the disk once, when i just gave it a try one more time after months. I managed to see files and see the windows 7 map, documents, files, everything. But the problem was, i had to take ownership of all the files, never had to patience to do that so i gave up again.
I checked for weird noises and any other issues but couldnt find any, it starts up like a normal HDD like it should.
MAIN PROBLEM:
My PC doesnt detect the HDD. I have another windows 7 hdd, it doesnt detect that either.
THINGS I'VE DONE:
1. Placed it in a hotswap bay; got detected once (maybe it was luck), pc boots up slower
2. Connected it from within pc, with the right cables, power and data (Never detected it) pc boots up slower
3. Connect as main disk, disconnected ssd with windows 10, boots up, gives error and tells me to boot with cd or something and then press any key.
4. Tried to connect with several accessoires, like SATA to USB converters, starts up, no clicking sound, but system does not detect it.
Its a SEAGATE 500GB BARRACUDA ES.2
It has a disclaimer saying:

You're free to ask questions, i will try to answer them as correctly as possible for maximum information.
I want my windows 10 to detect this drive.
