Hey, I Recently reformatted and i see that it doesn't read my 2nd hard drive or my burner, which is my 2nd cd drive. I also reformatted the 2nd hard drive too, but i did not create a partition because im not sure what to do with a back up. Can anyone help?

Thank you for your time and patience.

Could you provide some details on your setup?

How was the formatting done and was it NTFS or FAT32? What partitions do you now have? Are the drives displayed by Disk Management and if they are, what is their status as displayed in the window?

Um..... well i only formatted 1 of the drives because i wasn't sure how the back up drive works. I formatted my first drive with NTFS quick. And i found out that yes, my 2nd cd drive is displayed in Disk Management, but not my 2nd Hard drive. I also didn't create a partition for the 2nd HD either. Did i have to? They are all healthy.
