My HDD shows in Device Manager but not in Disk Management!

i just received my new HDD after warranty replacement. But the disk is not recognized in Disk Management but visible in Device Manager by the name
HGST HUH 721212ALE604 SCSI Disk Device. It is slightly visible in icaredata, Zentimo xstorage Manager n Device manager.
I can't initialize bcoz its not visible in the Disk Management. Tried to uninstall driver and scan for hardware change doesn't do anything. In fact the name is gone.
icaredata does show as F: 12 TB.
But i feel the present drive is spinning according to like it should be. Could anyone suggest me something.
Awaiting reply.

Plz see the pics:

try formatting the HDD by the command line

if that does not see the drive please try a live Linux bootable USB
and see if that can see and format the HDD

best of luck Steve ..

i cannot do that unless the disk is initialize which if not done, the VOL LABEL and a DRIVE LETTER will not be assigned.
So even from command line, there is no volume name or drive letter to perform such things like format.
But hey, i could try that from ubuntu or kali.
Will report back soon, god hope it works.

If your bios recognizes the disk (even if disk management does not) you can use Minitool Partition Wizard to initialize the new disk. However, if bios does not see the drive, you have a hardware failure.

Click to expand...

initialize it via diskpart…

list disk
select disk (#)
online disk
convert gpt (or convert mbr)
assign letter
