Go to CMOS configuration then Drive Configuration
Disable your SATA or all hard disks save & reboot.
Then again reboot & set back the previous settings, save & reboot
Sometimes it works on hard disk conflicts & other problem

I got the same problem too
i replace my data cable and it’s now working perfectly.
also keep in mind that perhaps your harddisk is about to be broken. better backups your data now…
Answer #11
Check the connections of the HD.
Check the motherboard end of the wire too.
If it does not work, change the slots.
