Hi Windows is not recognizing my second sata drive, the BIOS does list it as a 320gb Drive, i have a 1.5 sata drive (WD raptor) as master connected to the black sata 0 and a 3.0 sata drive (barracuda) in the black sata 2 (unformatted since XP dont allow me to see it). I dont know anything about sata drives, im amazed i managed to install windows. any tip in rearranging the drives or anything thta makes it work would help. Thanks

Motherboard: Intel D975XBX with Conroe E6600
 
Disk Manager is available via Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Manage Computer / Disk Manager.

This will let you see the drive, and right-clicking on it will give you the opportunity to format it.
