So I need a little help.
It seems as though one of my WD Green 1TB drives no longer works. The HDD still shows up in BIOS and after an extremely long boot process, the HDD shows up in My Computer.
However, there is no information of how much storage space there is. I ran Data LifeGuard and did a quick test which it passed. If I go under Disk Management the drive shows up as being Healthy. If I try and run Error-Checking it tells me that "Windows Can't Access the Disk." I also don't and never did hear any Clicking Noises coming from the HDD now, or prior.
I guess it seems as though the drive has failed or something funky is going on. If this is a HDD failure, this will be my first one ever so I really do not know what to do. Right now I am downloading SystemRescue.
So what should my next steps be??
