Why can’t I see my extra hard drive?

i added another hard disk on my computer, but when I opened My Computer the extra hard disk was not on there. What’s  happening?

Chances are you added the hard drive correctly, but you haven’t finished installing it in Windows…It probably needs to be formatted.

  • Right-click on My Computer and select manage
  • Expand out Storage on the left and click on “Disk Management”
  • You should see your new disk located in the bottom-middle pane, probably labled “Disk 1”
  • Right-click your unformatted disk and follow the prompts through the wizard to format it correctly.

This should solve your problem.
