I have 2 Hitachi/IBM 60GB Hard Drives. I started with
the one that I have XP installed on. I added the second
later on, and can not get XP to recongnize the drive. It
is detected in BIOS, and on my RAID controller, however
it will not show up on My Computer. I currently have it
set up as a spare, as this is the only way that my
computer will start up with it connected. Please help, I
really would like to use this second drive for media
files, what am I doing wrong. Thanks for any help you
can offer.
 
Windows will not 'see' a drive until it is partitioned, formatted and
assigned a drive letter.

Right click on My Computer and select Manage. On the following screen,
click on Disk Management.

The driver should now show up on the right hand side of the screen from
where you can do all the above.
