I an having trouble with my secondary SSD

I’m currently facing problems with my secondary SSD. I’ve checked in my mounted devices but the laptop isn’t picking it up. The problem started when I switched from windows to Manjaro. could this be a software problem? Kindly help

Theres a few ways to look at things.

lsblk
df -h
sudo fdisk -l

At least one of those will be needed.
Along with that here is a guide for finding and sharing general system info:
