So I think I'm totally screwed here but it's a shot in the dark.
I run a ESXi 4.1 Box at home. With 3 HHD's for storage.
Split into 2 separate Datastores.
I've been having issues with 1 VM ( Windows Home Server) locking up and it will cascade down to basically the entire Host system being hung.
Monday morning comes around, ESXi box is locked up again and I go ahead a power cycle it. Comes back up like it normally does, but this time the WHS VM won't Show up or the Datastore for it doesn't come up.
It's only seeing 2 out of the 3 drives in the System ( BIOS level see's all 3 drives) but ESXi only see's 2 drives.
If I go to Config > Storage > Add Storage - It finds the Seagate Drive as basically a new drive and wants to format it, but I know there is data on it so I don't want to format it.

What can I do to get it to see the Third Drive again?
