I have a SSD main drive and a 1TB secondary HDD and my computer only sees the SSD yet if I go to device manager the 1TB drive shows up fine. How can i access the 1 TB drive?
Right click on Computer and click Manage. Go to disk management, you should see your 1TB HDD there, you can right click on it and assign it a drive letter and you should be able to access it. (this is only if it cant remember its drive letter)

the 1TB drive has been used for a few years as storage, I've swapped it between computers before and never had a problem with the computer detecting it. it shouldn't need to be formatted.

If it's showing up in device manager,but you're unable to access it - it probably needs to be formatted. The data may have become corrupted.
