Last response: in Storage
Hi,
I have just installed Win 7 Pro on a 128 Gb SSD, I eventually managed to nstall one WD Green, 1TB Drive I have 2 additional SATA 1TB Caviar Black HDD which are recognised in the BIOS but not by windows can anyone please advise, do I need jumpers and in what configuration Two of the drives worked well in Win 7 premium addition thre latest is just formated. They are seen individually but not together.
Any ideas please

Welcome to Tom's Hardware...
Plug both hard drives in and check your Disk Management screen to see if there is a drive letter conflict or one assigned to them. You need to have the drive letter in order for them to show up in "My Computer" screen. Here is a thread that has more information on it... http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/265764-32-guide-insta...
