I see it in device manager, but it doesn't show up in
windows explorer as a drive
 
Greetings --

The hard drive cannot appear in Windows Explorer or My Computer
until it has been partitioned and formatted. Right-click My Computer
Manage > Disk Management. Create and format partition(s) on the
second hard drive as desired.

Hi Bruce,

Thought you might be able to help based on the discussion
below. I have a master/slave HD setup where my master HD
crashed. I purchased a another HD and loaded Windows XP
Pro onto it. I then connected the slave from the original
configuration.

The device manager recognizes it, but it doesn't show up
under My Computer. Is there a way to get it to show up
without losing the data on the second drive?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
