HHD suddenly "invincible" after upgrading my pc. I have 4 disks in my computer. The newest one actually a 4tb disk. Suddenly became unresponsive. I cant find it in the bios or disk management. I failed to flash my old gpu even tho i had the right serial number and the unit number. So i had to buy a new one gtx 780 i am very pleased and no more flashing. Installing it was difficult because of my cabinet size.
After i got everything perfect i turned on the computer i got some minor issues like starting pci express just freezing for 20 seconds which never normally occur.
So now what can i try? is the hard disk just dead? there is no damage to the sata cabel as far as i can see i dont have a extra to try changing it. Would love to hear from some experts :)

Try and change the sata ports that u used to connect the hdd to the motherboard, if that doesn't do it then i am afraid it might be dead.

but dont just get rid of the hdd try and connect it to another machine and see if that work.
