Hello,
My first problem is that i run powershell with admin rights and ran chkdsk f: /f /r . I thought it would restart pc after that but no, just started running chkdsk until now, so i could access the disk. Now, after about 3 hours total progress is 0%, but in phase 2, is this normal? should i wait? HD is not SSD and with 3.63TB capacity. I made chkdsk previously with CMD and didnt take so long, maybe is slower cause didnt boot windows?
Another problem is that the hard drive which made the windows boot was hit and cant be recovered. I had a SSD with the old windows partition, but dont know why needed this other hard drive to boot, i couldnt start Windows so i saw in the internet that could use bootrec /fixmbr, then bootrec /fixboot and then bootrec /rebuildcbd but that just made it worse. After making a clean install in other SSD i see the old windows partition in the other SSD shows my partition with all the data as EFI dont know why and cant access it, i tried to assign it a letter but gives me access denied

Wow, this imploded for you lol.
"DMDE doesnt recognice my hard drive, neither the BIOS"
If the BIOS doesn't see it and if its an SSD type then try powering off and/or removing power to the drive for at least 10 seconds (maybe up to 1 hour; in worst case much longer)... and see if it shows up again after power on. SSD controllers can lock the drives for protection and when this happens they disappear from even the BIOS. Corruption can happen as well.
DMDE doesnt recognice my hard drive, neither the BIOS, this can be recovered even my proffesionals or windows has permanently deleted my data?
I just found this https://www.easeus.com/data-recovery/drive-recovery-software/recover-not-recognized-external-hard-drive-data.htm which says "Case 2. Hard Disk Becomes RAW and Not Detected. First, DO NOT do as Windows requires. If you did so, all data in the drive would be lost", my data is lost for trusting in Windows. I am considering denouncing Microsoft for this
Windows is a virus, has completely wiped my HD, now is not even in the disk manager, made an unasked automatic repair when booting that destroyed my HD. My pc load much slower now with the new ssd than with my previous non ssd hard drive. The ssd is in supported by my motherboard, appears in that list. The graphic card doenst appear in device manager, just appears a unknow pci device, i check new hardware and discover nothing, i treid in the basic windows adapter device shown and also in the unknown device that also appears, detects nothing but my graphic card has power and running fine, was working fine until before this total disaster that seems destroyed the whole pc just for hitting one HD, thiis seems more like a curse...one hard drive hit accidentallly that beeps where i had the backup of this important proyect i worked several years, the main hard drive suddenly dies after make a new windows install thanks to windows and the useless repair tool that destroys instead repairing and graphic card doesnt work, another ssd i had also formatted as efi partition and icannot access data, and now the pc even boots slow, basically just works the cpu
