Click to expand...

The Device Manager shows hardware so it will show everything including all drives. My Computer shows software, so it will only
display logical drives, ie, only partitioned drives which have a letter assigned (formatted or not).

Use the Disk Management console (Run->diskmgmt.msc) to view the other drive and partition it.
