Ouch!!!!!
Can you back up to old bios to see if it will work again?
Bios flashing and losing drives arent really causeational/related.
Sucks neb... Sorry.
Did you try to SE the drive and start from scratch?
Bios updates sometimes include firmware updates for onboard chips, so it's a possibility.The bios flash had to be add odd coincidence as flashing a bios has nothing to do with sata anything.
I don't believe it killed the drive directly. Wrecking a onboard RAID setup makes sense (eg: updated SATA controller chip firmware, might not work the same and does not recognize a valid RAID setup on boot up which kills the RAID), but like others have said, it could have been just a coincidence or "the straw that broke the camels back" that caused the drive to fail after the update.
