The second hard drive is not showing after upgrading from windows 7 to windows 10. It Was showing at first but now it's not even showing in disk management. When
the problem started, sometimes it would show after restarting the computer. Pliz help

Hey there, chidzoi.

I'd suggest that you try backing up all of your data one of the times the drive shows up. After that go ahead and try the HDD with a different SATA port and cables, to see if the same thing happens, or even better - a different computer. If you manage to access it this way and you still haven't backed up your data - do it and then download the HDD manufacturer's diagnostics tool to test the drive and see if anything out of the ordinary pops-up.

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