Hello
have a new computer with dual SATA 200 gig drives. XP sees them as one drive. How can I make it see them as 2 separate drives?

Were they set up is RAID1? Are you sure that it's not that just one drive is formatted?

Right click My Computer->Manage->Storage->Disk Management
Looking at that will hopefully make it obvious

Also, in XP it is possible to mount a drive volume as extending any particular folder and most probably drive as well

Probably set up as a RAID 1 mirror.
