Pull the hard drive out and check it in another computer. It has probably gone bad. By installing it in another computer you should be able to see the drive in windows explorer and disk management. If NOT the drive has died.

I also ran seatools on the drive which found the drive to be fine and im also able to browse the files in my hard drive through my bios' easy flash tool. I was messing around with the raid / ahci setting for some xbox stuff the day before the drive crashed and when i set my bios back to optimized default it keeps loading the sata setting as ahci even though it need to run it as raid because of my ssd. I feel like the problem was caused by this but im not sure what to do.

Ive been able to now locate my hard drive on my computer when i load the sata drivers thorough a flash drive and i was able to run a chkdsk /x /f /r which did all its work and i was also able to do a bootrec.exe /fixmbr which also said it was successful but still lead to no boot. I decided to go into the rapid storage technology (Ctrl I) in my boot and it showed that my SSD used for cache was in raid 0 (cache) but my main drive was now a non raid drive. following a "tutorial" on another website i decided to set the SSD back to a non raid drive but now im receiving the error during boot saying "missing operating system" but the OS is still there according to cmd and my easy bios flash tool. How can i get my computer to recognize my main hard drive to have an OS on it now?
