Hard Drive not showing

Slythe · 26 Dec 2012 at 12:27

Can someone please help. I have just opened my new computer bought from overclockers. It should have come with 2 hard drives. A solid state drive and a 1 TB hard drive. I can only see the solid state drive under my computer. I have checked Disk Management (Right click on Computer >> Manage >> Disk Management) - it is showing there but the drive doesn't have a letter assigned to it. Is all I need to do assign it a letter to it or is there something else I need to do? does it matter what letter I use.

Thanks

Yes mate just assign a letter. You were so close, thanks for not making me type out what you need to do to get to the disk management window

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Just right click on the unallocated space to format the drive and assign a drive letter.

Pick whatever letter isn't in use takes your fancy.

Most people probably use the next unassigned letter.

Make sure your ssd is C and not the other way around
