I have an Orico 4 bay JBOD enclosure that has been running fine for months. All of a sudden when booting up today I noticed all the driver names were defaulted to "local disk A:, B:, etc..
When clicking on a drive windows says they are not accessible and says I need to format them, which I obviously don't want to do. I have seen many other forums saying to do Chkdsk via the CMD promt. I started this but 1 8GB drive was going to take 17 hours, I stopped it after running 8 hours. I took them out if the JBOD and tried them in a single HDD dock and they are still not accessible. Is there a known actual fix for this or known cause for all 4 drives simultaneously being inaccessible? Could the JBOD enclosure have done this? Is there a quick way to rebuilt the master boot table/record? Or is that even what the issue is?
System Specs:
- Windows 10 Creators update(newest)
- i7 6700k(stock)
- 32GB Corsair dominator
- Asus Hero VIII Alpha(newest bios)
- All external drives in question are x2 Seagate 4GB Constellations ans x2 Seagate 8GB Archive HDDs(please don't just give me your opinion on the Seagate brand, I know, they are not my main HDDs.
Thanks in advance
