A couple days ago, its disappears no longer show up in Windows 10 Disk Management. CMOS recognized the drive.(without description). I was attempting to reinstall windows and windows showing the drive as allocate drive. it allowed me to allocate the space. But, it will for let me format or install windows.

Smooth 92 Report post Posted August 31, 2022 Does Patroit have any software for this drive? Maybe a firmware update? Could just be dead, But I would go to them and there support pages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rædwulf 1,440 Report post Posted September 10, 2022 I'd say it would be missing drivers but if it recognized and showed the drive then it had the proper drivers. The fact that diskpart wouldn't recognize it makes me lean toward it being a dead drive. I've tried all the secrets and tips out there for when this happens and nothing usually works when it comes to a drive being dead. Was this a drive that had data saved on it or just a drive for an OS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
