Last night, my PC froze while I was using it, and I had to force restart it, which usually works fine. When it booted up again, one of my hard drives appeared to stop working—it's showing as corrupted, even though it only contains some Steam games and photos. I decided to tackle the issue later, but today, when I used the command 'sfc /scannow,' it mistakenly deleted all drives except for the C drive. I've already tried restarting the computer, but nothing has changed. I'm really frustrated because I rely on this PC for work. If the solution requires me to open the PC and check for hardware issues, I'm open to that, but I might just end up taking it to a professional for help.

That sounds really strange! First, check your Disk Management by running 'diskmgmt.msc' in the command prompt. It will help you see if all your drives are detected. If the drive is still listed there, we can explore options for fixing any corruption issues.
I opened Disk Management, and I only see drive C and two unnamed drives. What does that mean?
