I just got a new HP desktop w/Windows 7 OS with a single SATA internal drive. I just purchased an internal 2 TB Hitachi SATA to be used as data storage. Do I just connect the power and data cable and use Windows disk management to partition and format the drive? I am new to SATA and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

My problem is exactly what you are mentioning about.
My pc did not recognize the 2TB SATA hard drive I added on. I do not know how to change or update BIOS.
Please help
