Why is my second hdd not working?
i have linux and widows both on my notebook in dual boot.
when i boot linux it works fine with the hdd mounted. but when i boot windows it is stuck on the loading forever. when i launch windows without the hdd it works. i managed to get the hdd work but windows was much slower. when i try to format the hdd on linux i get input/output error. but when i connect the hdd trough usb everything works. is it a hardware problem? how can i repair this ?
edit: windows 10 pro and linux mint 20

Many variables here, firstly does your linux distro boot without the second hdd? When you are able to boot windows, do you do it from grub?

Hi @coconus
When the laptop is first started and the Lenovo logo is on the screen press F1 to enter the BIOS setup menus. All the info should be there.
