Hard drives keep vaishing

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Do the usual: Make sure the system is clean, connections tight (they can
work loose over time), and you might also see if the BIOS has a delay set
when the drives start. If one drive fails to pass the init test, it might
prevent the other(s) from being seen as well. I would run diagnostics on the
drives as well.
