Re: Computer Not Recognizing New HDD

you must format the drive before it will show up under my computer



right click on "my computer / select "manage" from the upper half of the menu which appears / select "disk management" in the left pane of the console which appears / in the right console of disk management find the new drive listed and right click on it / it will give you an option to "format" the drive >>>>> choose NTFS file format
