Hey everyone,
Recently I installed Arch Linux on a separate drive as I wanted to explore it before making the transition from Manjaro (my current primary OS). I also have Windows installed for gaming. Unfortunately, after installing Arch on that separate drive, manjaro and it’s grub option dissapeared. It is very important that I get it back. The last thing I expected was for it to dissapear for an installation on another drive.
I reviewed other articles but none of them seem to make any sense.
Here is some relevant information that may help:

Thank you very much for the time of whomever assists. I look forward to learning this do I don’t have to struggle with it if it happens again. I’m an IT that normally fixes all my own problems but this one is beyond me at the moment.
