Hello tom's hardware, im really gonna rely on you guys for this one (always helped me in the past so much!)
I just built my first PC last night and only had the SSD plugged in and then installed windows as usual no problem. I played with it, installed basic drivers, and all while being sooo fast; I loved it!
Now the issue: i have 2 one TB drives from a previous pc (yes they work no problem). I installed these drives into the pc, plugged them in, and pressed power on. Upon pressing power, it stays on the "Asus" boot logo and a spinning loading icon for a veeery long time (like around 10-15 mins). After which, sometimes it makes to the desktop and again, its nice and super fast.
Moreover, in "This PC" the two installed drives are not listed as well. Lastly, when I click "shut down" (if it does shut down this century) it takes a very long time as well.
If you guys have any tips, troubleshooting, or help I will love you sooo much! I just wanna enjoy my new PC so badly. :*( [if u help me out and happen to live in indy, ill buy you a beer! and yes im that desperate for my baby to work]
tl;dr --> clean installed windows 8.1 on SSD and became awesome/mega fast. Afterwards, installed HDDs and made pc meeeeega slow on boot up and shut down only. Drives do not appear in "My Computer/This PC"
