Hey there, gen.

I'd recommend that you connect the drive to a different computer either externally (via an external enclosure, a docking station, or a SATA to USB adapter), or internally via a SATA connection, to see if it's recognized. If it is - go ahead and backup any important data which you might have on it. However, if the drive is not recognized, try accessing it via Linux Live USB/DVD, to see if it's properly recognized and if you can get to your files, or try with data recovery software.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how everything goes.

Thank you Boogieman_WD, actually after a lot of tries from restarting and checking the Dell BackUp and Recovery, it finally opened... Thanks for the answer anyway, I find it very useful in case of emergency. :)
