After you boot from other HDD, Can you see the problematic HDD in Disk Management? If yes, Check if the partitions are intact or lost. If partitions are lost (i.e. The total space shows as unallocated and you cannot format or create partitions), Use HDTune Pro or any other software to do an error test.

If there are bad sectors, I don't think you can recover your data.

Not showing under bios ? Then do the usual like trying different sata ports, sats cable and power cable. Try it on another pc if possible. If all fails then the PCB of the HDD has gone bad.

Check out the cable and ports and if possible use it on any other pc as well. If nothing change your HDD is gone.

Hi [MENTION=304151]geekyms4[/MENTION],

Based on your post, it may be a hardware issue. It could be some more possible reason for the issue like Hardware faulty, compatibility, SATA cable issue and BIOS settings. To confirm the problem, please follow the following steps.

Option 1:
Check the power management in Windows or the BIOS menu as well to see what all options are on and which ones are off.

Option 2:
Try a different MOBO to make sure that the problem is with the HDD and not with the MOBO port.

If it’s still not showing in the bios, then it’s a hardware issue and the HDD is still under warranty; I’d suggest you proceed for an RMA.

Hope it helps.
