Decomposed > Does the BIOS say you have an extra drive?

Ya Know Doc,
I didn't look there. It'll be Tuesday before I get another
chance to check for that. I was speculating maybe somebody
was doing something with RAID software on it . . .

But one guy from 'Mr. Internet' said he was doing a backup
and a power loss did something similar . .

Any chance there was XP or an older computer who's BIOS would
not recognize a BIG drive . . so some utility was used to
'break it' into two smaller chunks?

Re: "Any ideas as to what caused it?"
Not really, though I'm wondering if something like OneDrive, a configuration for disk mirroring, a cloud drive (Google Drive), etc., account for it. Does the BIOS say you have an extra drive? Or is it only happening after you boot Windows? The latter would suggest that it is along the lines of one of the aforementioned speculations.
