My Seagate 3TB drive decided it no longer wanted to be recognized by Windows anymore. I then installed a 2 TB Hitachi hard drive in the Win 10 machine. Many storage controller manufacturers offer updated drivers that provide support for storage capacities of more than 2 TB.

This download creates a self-booting DOS diskette to run the DFT utility. The Drive Fitness Test (DFT) provides a quick, reliable method to test SCSI and IDE hard disk drives, including Serial-ATA IDE drives. The Drive Fitness Test analyze function performs read tests without overwriting customer data. (However, Drive Fitness Test is bundled with some restoration utilities that will overwrite data.)
Supports SCSI and IDE drives, including Serial-ATA drives

Note: Currently, the Drive Fitness Test does not support Microdrives, or Travelstar E drives.Bad Links

Hi Nydirech,
If you facing the S-ATA (Serial ATA) hard disk not found and not detected problem, here’s a few steps and suggestions that you may take to identify what exactly is the cause of the problem, and its possible solutions or workarounds.
1. Some SATA chipset especially older version requires driver for the Operating System(OS) setup to recognize the SATA drive. Make sure you have a copy of driver from the manufacturer ready.

2. For those without SATA/RAID driver, it’s also possible to disable SATA RAID option in the BIOS. OS normally has native SATA driver (except old on as specified above), and thus able to detect the SATA disks.

3. Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) mode on SATA hard drive also requires appropriate drivers in. Disable AHCI or change SATA mode to Integrated Drive Electronics(IDE) emulation mode in BIOS so that SATA hard drive will work as just a normal hard drive utilizing native SATA driver in Windows or other OS.
