HDD not detected by OS

Hi everyone ! I just registered on this site, because usually I find solutions myself...

So, like every month, I was reinstalling Windows on my SSD (KINGSTON SA400S37120G) for better performances. I don't own a USB bootable device so I plug a CD reader with the Win10 disk in it (SATA). I thus disconnected my internal HDD (ST3000DM008-2DM166), plugged my CD reader (of course power-off) and managed to get Windows installed correctly. I did the bunch of updates that took forever... then restarted the PC and went to the file manager. No D: showing up. Fine, I just need to import it as a foreign disk and it should do it. BIOS, and device manager detect the disk but not diskpart, disk manager or control panel. Disk driver is updated and I just can't figure out what to do, It's been 3 hours I'm looking up non-stop the internet but none of the solutions can fix my problem.

I have moved this disk many times between PCs (very carefully don't worry) and never had been in trouble. I really really don't want to format it, there are 1500GB of non backupped data (not so important but I need them. Most of them are in servers probably located in Antartic (35KB/s)) Is there something I'm missing ?
Thanks for the help, Cyka
