In addition to 
xcopy K:\Vid* D:\ /O /X /E /H /K /C /I /Q /Y
I had also executed:
xcopy K:\Vid* C:\ /O /X /E /H /K /C /I /Q /Y

I could not access C: drive remotely so assumed that would not be able to see 
event logs. But in fact I can see event logs of this server. Thanks Andrew for 
leading me that way, but logs don't tell me much. Here they are:

In System Event  logs: (After reboot)

Source:  Server Event ID:      2511     (Warning)
"The server service was unable to recreate the share Baker because the 
directory D:\Baker no longer exists... "

Source:  Service Control Manager        Event ID:      7023 (Error)
The Windows Search service terminated with the following error: 
Access is denied.
** This error repeats periodically, every few hours **

In Application Event log, these errors started right when C: and D: became 
invisible.

Source: ESENT   Event ID:      491 (Error)
wuaueng.dll (956) SUS20ClientDataStore: An attempt to determine the minimum I/O 
block size for the volume "C:\" containing 
"C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb" failed with system 
error 5 (0x00000005): "Access is denied. ".  The operation will fail with error 
-1032 (0xfffffbf8).

** This error is repeated about every hour **

Source: ESENT   Event ID:      439 (Error)
wuaueng.dll (956) SUS20ClientDataStore: Unable to write a shadowed header for 
file C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb. Error -1032.

Source: ESENT   Event ID:      473 (Error)
wuaueng.dll (956) SUS20ClientDataStore: Database 
C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb was partially detached. 
 Error -1032 encountered updating database headers.

On searching on these ESENT errors, found articles about Exchange, but this is 
just a file server. Thanks again to all of you.
