Finally my build is up but...

[xraycat87]

Installed Windows 8.1 onto my new machine on a fresh SSD.

I have 3 hard drives plugged in aswell..

Created a volume for one (as it was new too)

but the other two drives, one a 1TB another 640GB, it won't let me keep them as a single drive or even load load it up to get my data off it.

I have no idea on disk management or windows 8.1 so please help me

It's not really very clear what you're asking.

Googling 'Windows 8 Disk Management' finds plenty of articles. What do you need to know that isn't covered there?

Everything I find suggests formatting the drive. I need that Data.

un plug all the drives and install windows on the SSD, then buy a cheap caddy to get the info off the other drives before formatting.
