Hi people weird issue here:
My dad has a machine with 2 HD's, his Seagate is his main drive with the OS and he had a Western Digital for backups.
He bought a new Hitachi for backups so I put this in the machine and moved the backups from the WD on to Hitachi.
I then formatted the WD and took this out as it was no longer needed.
But without this the PC won't boot to the OS, if I put it back in then the machine will boot, but there is absolutely nothing on this drive it is blank.
If I use seatools it picks up the WD as the main boot partition, even though windows sees the Seagate as the C:
They are all Sata drives the Seagate C: is in Sata2 the WD is in sata1 and the Hitachi in Sata3.
I don't know why is Seagate c: was not in Sata1 I did not setup this PC.
No matter how I swap where the drives are plugged in the machine will not boot without the WD plugged in.
Any help appreciated.
