Windows 10 won't boot After Forced Shutdown
Hi I have a dual boot (windows 10 1809) and Windows 10 (20H2) that has been running fine. Yesterday I installled two 14TB EasyStore and Elements drives and put them in a RAID 1 config to backup my drives. I decided to copy the files overnight from my smaller 4TB drive.
I woke up this morning to the error "Windows can't find source folder" when copying one of the files. I checked to see if both the RAID 1 and source HDD were both readable and they were.
I said try again but after a minute of explorer trying to reinitiate the copy, the error came again. I tried accessing the source drive but file explorer locked up. I tried to hit CTRL+ALT+DEL but the computer wouldn't respond so I went to the back of the PC and shut it off with the PSU power switch.
I rebooted but now my PC won't boot. It gets to the BIOS menu and starts trying to load Windows with a black screen. That's it. All my drives are still plugged in and show on my BIOS including the RAID 1 array. What can I do to get Windows back. It won't even go into WIndows recovery mode

Ok, so my computer booted up when I unplugged the HDD that was giving me faulty read option. I've never seen Windows not boot becaues of an internal HDD. I have data on that HDD I'd like to recover. What can I do?
