HELP Lost Disk!

I have 4 hard disks installed, each assigned a separate letter, no partitions. (C, D, E and F)

One bright morning, D simply disappeared. On the Device Manager, I do not see that drive at all, however using the "IFS Drives Control Panel" I do see it, but it says "No Media", and is not assigned a letter.

Any ideas?

If your still BIOS sees the drive, all is not lost. Reboot your computer and F10 it and see if the drive comes up in the BIOS list of hardware.

You use more than one operating system, don't you?

Can you see it in Disk Management. If yes, assign a drive letter - right click, etc.
