I booted up windows on my SSD, and now my SSD is my C drive and the only drive that I can see in file explorer. When I go the the Computer Management program and select Disk Management, I can see the hard drive, it says it is initialized and working, but I don't see it under This PC in file explorer.

Also, in my BIOS menu, the SSD is the first priority in the boot menu, and the hard drive is the second.

Hello... You have to give permission, as administrator, "Mark Partition as Active" to use any other drives with your OS... if you right click the Graphics screen below for the Drive, Can you get the option to "Mark Partition as active"? in the Disk Management screen... this will make the Drive available in the OS other screens.
