Hi, so I bought a gaming PC with a 2TB hard drive installed, I installed an additional 128GB SSD Drive, then I installed Windows 8 onto the SSD, all seemed fine then I realised the 2TB drive was not recognised, tried changing it to a letter :)A) so it would recognise but for some reason all that showed up was around 350mb, not much. As you can see from my screenshot below, windows recognises that I have 2TB of space on this drive, however it is not letting me access it.

YES I HAVE TRIED FORMATTING. But windows says it cannot be formatted, doesn't tell me why...

Here is a screenshot: http://i1317.photobucket.com/albums/t637/dantemusprime/harddrive_zpsa74be6e0.png

Help.
 


Drive letters A & B are reserved for floppy disk drives, so that might be the reason only 350MB showed up.

Your screenshot shows that you are using drive letters C, D, & E.

So try assigning another drive letter from F through Z and see if that works.
