    First of all,I have checked the the orginal box of the docking station (i still have it, after a couple years lol) and on the box it does say up to 4TB in case of 3,5" drives, on the physical installation guide it does say the same.So i'm pretty sure, the issue is caused by the docking station.HDD became RAW from NTFS-diskmgmt.jpg
    Here's the screenshot from disk management. It is interesting again, because it seems to be NTFS
    not RAW, but i still cannot open the drive, it's telling me "[driveletter] :\ is not accessible. Access denied."

    So according to any known information, chances are big that the docking station is not suitable for this.
    Do you have any suggestions on what kind of device should i buy, with at least 4 slots(bay).
    I was about to buy something like Raidsonic icy box thing with 4 bays, but i'm not sure a "RAID" device can be used
    as a docking station.

    Thank you for your help and for your kind replies.

    There you are. You have an old dock that is not suitable for handling a 10TB disk.

    I believe that Disk 0 and Disk 1 are internal disks and Disk 2 10TB and Disk 3 2TB are on the dock but Disk 3 is not accesible.

    Switch off the dock. Remove the 10TB disk and put the 2TB disk in the first bay. Reboot the PC and switch on the dock and check whether the 2TB disk is accessible.

    If not accessible still, please start a new thread in Ten Forums giving complete history including where and how the disk was connected before. I shall leave it to .other knowledgeable experts there. You can register with the same user name and password and do not forget to fill in the complete specifications of your machine in "My Computer". You can also ask for suitable docks there ( I have only one dock = a Two bay Orico dock and that is also old but can handle upto 8TB - serves me good on my Windows 10 PC.)

    Have a good night.
