Hello.
1 month ago I added a new hdd to my computer.
It was 1TB and actually pretty fast.
It was fine until yesterday when I booted my computer and
it got stuck at my bios saying : Auto-detecting SATA 4...
But that is not all.
The day before another of my older drives wasn't detected but got fixed somehow and then this drive stopped working.
It spins the head moves when I am on the bios.
It moves twice every 3 seconds then it finds out it doesn't exist which takes ages and then it goes to windows (10).
Don't know the model unfortunately becauseI didn't buy it
Thank you for helping me...

Update 3: This is what my BIOS shows and also my HDD's head moves twice every 2-3 seconds forever unless I shut down my pc!
