Hi,
I've recently formatted a computer which was running Windows 8. I have installed Windows 8 back on to the computer, and have got everything working again except my secondary internal hard drive.
When I formatted the computer, I disconnected the second hard drive, as this only contains personal files and does not have any programs installed on it, so I did not want to lose this data.
I have now reconnected the second hard drive to my computer, but Windows does not pick it up. It shows up in the BIOS screen, but does not show up in the disk management screen or the device manager screens on Windows.
Does anybody know how I can get Windows 8 to detect this Hard Drive, and how I can do this without losing any data. The Hard Drive is a Western Digital Caviar Green 2tb hard drive, and the motherboard is a P8Z77-V LX2.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me with this.
