    Keep in mind, Disk Unkown, Not initialized is not always a serious problem. Do not panic and outright try to initialize it in Disk Management. It can happen to both external and internal drives. If it happens just after a power outage, simply shut down your pc and wait for a minute or two, then restart your pc. If it's still missing from windows explorer and shows as not initialized, while your pc is off, you can try another SATA port or even new sata power and data cables.
    It just happened to me today and restarting the pc fixed it :D

      Yes, dear, using disk management to initialize the disk will cause data loss, so I suggest you try to rebuild MBR first to see if it can fix your problem if not you have to choose to initialize it.

    Overnight my Internal HHD became Unknown and can't boot up my PC. Using Diskpart to list volume shows "volume#"-volume 1, "Ltr"-C, "Fs"-Unkno (other volumes are showing NTFS or FAT32), "Type"-Partition, "Size" 451GB & "Status"-Healthy. Is this type of Unknown can be fixed, so I can bootup my Windows 10 again?
