I have just re-formatted my SSD that previously had Windows 7, a few programs and a game on it and left my HDD intact which had all of my other software and media/documents and games.

Before re-formatting the SSD (840 EVO 120gb), I installed a new 850 EVO 250gb that I was just going to have all of my games on and keep the HDD just for media and documents.
After formatting the 120gb SSD and installing Windows 7, my HDD is no longer recognized as a drive letter, but it does show up in Device Manager as WDC WD10EZEX-08M2NA0-ATA Device.

The drives that are visible are my (C) drive which is the 840 EVO, System Reserved (D), this was never here before the format and Games (E), which is the new 850 EVO 250gb.

How can I get my HDD to be accessible?

Thanks =)
 
Solution
I figured it out! I had to go into Disk Management and add a drive letter. I now have access to the drive and all of my files =)
