Answer Wiki:
It sounds like your disk manager service is timing out when you restart before it has time to access the drives. have you checked the event log. you might want to try to restart the computer till it down't see the partition and then restart the logical disk manager service and see if that is the culprit .. if so you can use a batch file during startup to stop and restart the service once the server is up and running when you have to reboot it to solve the problem. If it's something else in the event log i would need that information to diagnose it.
