Hello, I'm trying to figure out if I lost a HDD in my server. I have 2 smaller HDDs, 1 for OS and the other for basic storage like music and pictures, and then I have 2 WD Green 2TB drives, 1 for Movies and the other for TV shows. I stream from the Movies and TV show drives to other PCs hooked up to TVs in the rest of the house.
Literally out of nowhere the TV show drive stopped showing up completely. I opened up the server and switched around SATA cables, SATA ports, and SATA power connectors and that drive just doesn't show up. I even unhooked the Movies drive just to make sure there wasn't a conflict.
The drive doesn't show up in the BIOS list of drives, or even in the OS in Device Manager, so does this mean the drive died out of nowhere? Is there any way to actually test if its gone, some program or something? Thanks guys.
