Hey all, just got my DS system last week. My SSD shows up and runs just fine, by my second HDD is not. I'm new to dual HDD's so I may be overlooking something simple.

So far I have tried: Right click Computer>Manage>Storage>Disk Management

The only thing that shows up is my (c:) drive (SSD) and my CD ROM (D:).

I checked the connections as best I could and everything looks fine.

Any help would be appreciated! I'm running out of SSD space.

Hi simplekin....   Go into Bios and see if it shows in boot order.      If it doesn't show in Bios or Disc Management then make sure the 2 cables are plugged into the HDD, one is for power from the power supply harness and other is for data and runs from HDD to one of the motherboards SATA connections.   Something might've loosened in shipping.   Unplug and re plug the connections.

Call DS if this doesn't help.    Good Luck.
