Hi Daaanish,
Are you trying to install Windows on a desktop PC? I would recommend you to open BIOS and check if the drives are listed there. If the drives are not listed in BIOS, I recommend you to restore BIOS to its defaults and check again. If possible, open the case and change hard drive cables and ports. Try disconnecting all hard drives but one.
It would be nice, if you check them drives on another PC, connected as secondary drives. If they are missing even on another PC, you should think about replacing them, but I believe you won’t need to. Having multiple hard drives failing simultaneously is really rare and may indicate a motherboard or a power supply issue. I believe your problem is related to connectivity.
Hope this helps
