    Um, is windows giving you warnings of hard drive failure (or is the drive just disappearing randomly)? If so, you should definitely download SeaTools for Windows and run a SMART test on it.

    It disappeared after if cashed play SC2 and when I turned it back on there was no boot drive. After a few restarts it came back.
    Edit downloaded SeaTools for Windows and both of my drives pass the SMART check.
