• Second Hard Drive not recognized / climb (but it IS listed in the Device Manager)

  I have a HP Compaq DC7800 convertible mini tower running than Win 7 Pro 64-bit

  I installed a second hard drive, and while I can see listed in the Device Manager, it is not mounted.

  That is to say, it is not in the computer > field at all.

  The second hard drive is a Hitachi HDT721032SLA360 ATA Device

  Under the hardware ID, it is said: IDE\DiskHitachi_HDT721032SLA360___ST2OA38E

  I thought it was a driver problem. Device Manager indicates that it uses the Microsoft 6.1.7600.16385 driver.

  I can't find a Hitachi driver for this player. My understanding was that this drive would NOT need drivers.

  I have it in the plug of P5 (I think it is P5, it's at the end of the cable with the primary hard drive) and I have a data cable sata from the sata port on the rear of the disc in the slot sata on the motherboard next to the slot in the place where the main in drive is plugged.

  The only sites that list the drivers for this drive are all spam (thanks, google) sites.

  What I have to change something in my Bios?

  Thanks in advance.

  If the drive is listed in the device but not 'computer' Manager, it must be mounted or a new volume must be created. Please see HP - partitioning and names of hard drives (Windows 7) for more information on using the Windows Disk Management Console.

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• P7 - 1436 s: Second hard drive not seen by Win10.

  I physically installed a Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD in my office as additional data storage.  He is not seen by the operating system.  I followed the instructions and the video on this site.  I have installed and run the Seagate drive Wizzard but he does not see the new hard drive either.  The new drive is connected to the SATA1.  Power is the second connector on the cable that feeds the original hard drive (drive C).  I noticed that the hard aiinstalle plant is a Seagate Barracuda 1 TB so I guess tha the new drive must be compatible.  The computer works normally.

  Do I have to activate the new hard drive in the BIOS, and if so how do I do that?   (I make sure all the cables are in place.)

  Notice of another forum was to click on the 'Simple Volume' and then format.  I did it and here he was there.  I was able to access the drive again now.  Thanks for all the help.

• Newly installed internal Second hard drive not recognized

  L1701X XPS laptop (running Win 10). Installed a second 500 GB WD hard drive that is not recognized in the BIOS. I've updated (flashed) BIOS to the A10 and I updated all drivers recommended by Dell Support.

  If I remove the new second player and hover over the first (original) hard drive to the second vacant slot it works very well and also appears in the BIOS - so it seems to me that there is no problem with the second player port.

  I tried everything I could find on the Net about it, for example, to check the connection of the second disc, but nothing done yet.

  Can someone help me with this?

  I'm pulling this Post because I don't get all of the possible solutions to my question.  Thanks to the two people who have asked questions.

• Second HARD drive not recognized by windows 8 but is recognized by the sata bios

  Second disk sata hard of not appearing is not on my computer and disk management. However, the hard drive is displayed in the bios. I am running windows 8 and the hard drive has been used in another cpu with linux installed on it, I want to format the hard drive and use it to store data.

  Thanks, Thomas

  Hello

  Yes, it should work... I didn't know that you were able to do...

  If you can remove the entire partitions... If you can reformat it to NTFS on Linux, you do too much, or just wait and do in Windows.

  Parted Magic is actually a program Linux incidentally...

• I added a 128 gB microSD card to provide the space for my photos, (a second hard drive) but lightroom won't let me not import all the pictures that are already on the map. The only import option is 'copy', not 'Add '.

  I had a problem with Lightroom on Microsoft Surface 3.  I added a 128 gB microSD card to provide the space for my photos, (a second hard drive) but lightroom won't let me not import all the pictures that are already on the map.  The only import option is 'copy', not 'Add '.  I worked around this by mounting a network directory containing photos and imported from there.  Is it possible to stop Lightroom to see such a map as a camera?

  I have not tested, but it should work with Lightroom:

  Not sure what happens if you remove the card and put in a similar SD card. I would like to test it so that you know what to expect.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  Judgment of the laptop and unplug the 2nd HARD drive.

  Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

  When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

  Chipset Driver - Windows 7.

  When this is finished, stop the laptop.

  Reconnect the 2nd HARD drive, then start Notepad and let Windows take over completely for a few minutes before checking if the reader appears in the lower part of the disk management window.

  Kind regards

• Second SATA hard drive not detected by Bios and Device Manager

  Original title: second SATA hard drive

  Hard drive not detected by the Bios and the device under Vista Home Premiun Manager

  Hi trinitario,.

  Because the hard drive is not detected in the BIOS also, it may be due to a hard drive configuration that should be changed or a rider. If you need to get in touch with a Local tech-store for assistance.

  Note: change in the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• music file will not play in second hard drive double click Error "" the requested operation requires a rise ".

  Original title: music file won't play second hard drive by double click.

  Windows 7 ultimate/64

  I have a second hard drive on which I store my music files. If I open a player (Foobar is what I use now) and open the music file in the program, he plays very well, since the second HD.

  But if I double click on the music file (.mp3, usually), I get the message:

  "The requested operation requires a rise."

  I think it should open in the player by default when I do that.

  I remember well, it wasn't the case when I started to use this computer (it's fairly new), while something might have changed.
  I have the .mp3, .wav etc all default extensions for the Foobar player program.

  I went through elaborate measures to appropriate the entire disk and have granted full permissions for me as a user, following to the letter one of the many sites of the detailed instructions for this operation. But there is no help in sight.
  Original title: music file won't play second hard drive by double click

  So I can let my reader opens a music file leave a second drive, but I can't call him by double click or click right/context citing the player. When I do that, nothing happens, but I don't get the message "requires a rise."

  Every time I think that I am getting to know Windows 7, something like this happens. Avoid to receive life dull, of course.

  Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I've pretty much exhausted my own attempts.

  Jack

  Update: I think I've solved the problem. I have no idea that what caused it, but here's what fixed it:

  1 uninstalled Foobar with usual Control Panel uninstall
  2A through the startup disk everything and delete folders or files with the name "foobar" in them.
  3 did the same for the registry (creating a point of restoration first, of course)
  4 restarted
  5 download and install Foobar.

  Yes.

  Works very well.

  A big thank you to all who responded.

• DV7 not recognize the second hard drive?

  Hello

  I have a DV7 1240us equipped vista and recently tried to install a second hard drive. I ordered the same model number, the size and the brand as the main drive.

The hard drive is a Hitachi HTS543232L9A300 brand new in the box. What I am doing wrong?

  check Panel > administrative tools > computer management > disk management > storage >

  for any disk UN allocated space listed in black color.

  If so right click and format to create a partition, and then on the new hard disk space will be used
