So, after constructing my PC, I turned it on and the HDD is not showing up on the BIOS screen. Fortunately I had a SSD, so I installed the OS onto that.
Then I went into disk management, and I can see the HDD on there - it is classified as Unknown, Unallocated and Uninitialized. I tried initializing the disk according to instructions given in tutorials I have looked up, but it says that the operation cannot be completed due to an I/O device error.
Anybody have any ideas on how best to fix this? I have tried restarting the PC, and that hasn't fixed the issue.
