2nd harddrive?

Well I bought a second hard drive today and I hook up the power cable and the SATA cable like my other one, but for some reason its not showing up on my computer.
Its a Western Digital 36GB 10,000RPM SATA2 hard drive.
Answer #1
You prolly need to switch the jumper on the back of the HD, there should be a diagram on it. You need it on Slave.
Answer #2
From memory SATA drives don’t have master/slave configurations. Does your mobo support SATA2?
Answer #3
Try this:
1. Your SATA HD is not detected because you need to format it.
2. Right click My Computer –> Manage –> Disk Management.
3. You should see an �Initialize Disk� wizard pop up.
4. Partition and format the disk to your liking, but make sure NOT to convert it to a dynamic disk, as doing so will provide plenty of annoyances.
Note: There are no jumpers to worry about on SATA drives. Some SATA drives do have a jumper which controls the speed of the SATA drive itself, but you do not need to worry about anything related to master, slave or cable select.
