i have had 4years now in computer issues experience so if u need any help feel free to reply on here or just message me thanks 

What sort of issues do you deal with?

anything throw it at me bro

Alright what about a computer, its windows 7, i turn it on and it reads "Detecting IDE drives.." and don't do nothing. makes no noises, sometimes it will turn on somtimes it wont.

Most probably your drive has died. When you say that every time a drive failed, it showed up. That is because usually the media fails, and not the circuit. I have had drives where I accidentally damaged the circuit, and as expected, the drive doesn't show up at all.

If the drive is within warranty, I am sure they will replace it.

If the data is your drive is really important, there are some data recovery companies that can attempt to recover it. Call OCX people and ask them if they have any authorized Data Recovery companies, and use one of them. That way, you will not lose your warranty

that should be why bro
