You probably have a few partitions on your PC that you might not know about.
If you right click on my computer and goto manage. Then click on Disk
Management. On the right you can see what drives you have and what SPACE
might be abailable. If there is space that is not partitioned you can right
click on that SPACE and partition it and format it and another drive will be
created.

Here is a link that will go in to more detail.

Good luck
