    Hi,

    Welcome to Techimo!!

    Please don't post the same question in different threads.

    Is the 2nd Drive formatted as NTFS and the Master as FAT by any chance?

    Cheers

    is this a new drive?

    right click on my computer, click manage.

    then click disk management and you should see it. you should be able to partion the drive and format it

    please do not post more than one topic on the same subject
