Windows 7 SSD missing after hybernate

It seems like your secondary SSD is not being recognized by Windows after waking up from sleep mode. This issue can sometimes occur due to power management settings or driver-related issues. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve this problem: 1. Check Power Management Settings: - Sometimes, power management settings can cause devices to not wake up properly. Try disabling the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option in the device properties under Device Manager. 2. Update Drivers: - Ensure that all your drivers are up to date, including the chipset drivers and the drivers for the SSD itself. You can download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website. 3. Check Disk Management: - Open Disk Management to see if the SSD is recognized but not assigned a drive letter. If it appears in Disk Management without a drive letter, you can assign a drive letter to it. 4. Reset Power Options: - Resetting your power options to default settings may help. You can do this by going to Control Panel > Power Options > Change plan settings > Restore default settings for this plan. 5. Check Device Manager: - In Device Manager, check under "Disk drives" to see if the SSD is listed. If it's not, there may be a driver issue. 6. Run Hardware Troubleshooter: - Windows has a built-in hardware troubleshooter that can help diagnose and fix hardware issues. You can access it by going to Control Panel > Troubleshooting > View all > Hardware and Devices. 7. Check Sleep Settings: - If the issue persists, it might be related to the sleep settings. Try adjusting the sleep settings to see if that resolves the problem. 8. System File Checker (SFC): - Run an SFC scan to check for and repair corrupted system files. Open Command Prompt as administrator and run the command: sfc /scannow. If none of these steps resolve the issue, it might be worth looking into more advanced troubleshooting steps or seeking assistance from a technical support professional.
