I'm running an Alienware Aurora R3 with A06 BIOS and Windows 10. Windows is installed on my 250GB SSD, and everything else is on my 2TB HDD. All that works well, no issues there. I happened to have a 250GB HDD lying around somewhere with a bunch of photos on it, so I tried to plug it in my pc.
It shows up in the BIOS and in the RAID utility thing that keeps popping up before the windows logo on startup.
As soon as I get into windows, I can't see the drive anywhere. It doesn't show up in the file explorer (I also went in file explorer options and unchecked everything that would hide empty drives, unassigned drives, etc...), not in the disk management, device management, nowhere.
Do I have to install drivers or something? I tried plugging it into another port with other cables but that didn't change anything.
I don't see what else I could do. The drive is a WD Blue 250GB HDD
