You could also try and change the letter of the drive.

  • Go to Disk Management
  • Find your second hard disk drive, right-click on it and go to Change Drive Letter and Paths
  • Then reboot your machine.

If the drive is listed under device manager then right click on it and uninstall it.
Then reboot your machine if changing the letter and rebooting has no effect.

Uninstall it from device manager then reboot .
Then check if it shows as empty under my computer.
If that doesn't help then change the drive letter under my computer and reboot.
