Hi, I've just upgraded my PC and bought ASRock B560 steel legend with i5-11600kf. Along with the new disk I wanted to have my old drives with my data. After properly running everything one of them works perfectly (SSD), but my HDD are not seen by windows. I can see in bios and device manager that they are connected and visible, but windows doesn't recognize them. On disk management it asks for initialization, which would erase all my data, so I'll rather find another way. Is there any help in this situation?

In Windows 10, click the search icon on the taskbar and type "Disk Management"
(without quotes). "Click on Create and format partitions". This should list all the drives on your system. If the old drive is shown, right click it and assign it a drive letter. This should give you access to it. If you get stuck, google "Windows Disk Management help". |
