Just added a new hard drive, i'm a noob at this.

TheNards · Mar 21, 2014

I have been running my PC off a 240GB SSD. After some time, it has filled up with games and movies and whatever. So i went out and bought a new 1TB HDD. I installed it into my PC, with my SSD in SATA0 working as the boot drive and all the good stuff. I booted my PC... no clue where to go from here. I tried searching in Google and got so many different results. Can i get a homie to help a brotha out?

I am running windows 8.1 if that matters.

In "disk management" you probably need to create a new partition of the drive and do a quick format and assign a drive letter to it so that windows will see it.

Start here and go to disk management: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-format-hard-disk-partition#create-format-hard-disk-partition=windows-7

After doing this, steam is saying the drive is read only?
