Hi guys - I think this one will be easy for you,
I just got a new Samsung F3 1TB drive, however after pluging it in to my SATA port it isn't automatically coming up in Win7 Pro. I just re-installed win7 on my SSD boot drive and both it and my old HDD show up under "computer", but the new F3 is missing. I then checked in BIOS and it recognises all 3 drives as being connected. I went back into win7 and under "Computer management" - "Storage" - "Disk Management" I can find all 3 drives with their correct size, however as you probably already have guessed my F3 is "Unallocated" and described:
Disc 2
unknown
931.51 GB
Not Initialized
So my question is do I initialize the disk under the partion stylle MBR (its not supposed to be my boot drive - just an install drive for my game data) or under GPT?
Thanks guys
