Can't find secondary HDD

[Christofer Julin]

Hello. I recently bought a pre-built computer. It works great and I am very satisfied with the product. Anyhow, when I ordered the PC I also ordered a

Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5'' HDD
SATA 6.0Gb/s, 5400RPM, 256MB cache, 3.5''

I have connected it to the computer but I can't find it in windows. When I try to change from AHCI to RAID in bios, it automatically changes back to AHCI because my SSD apparently does not support this format. Any clue on what is wrong? Somehow it finds the disc in the bios but I get a system promt and it changes back to bios default if I try to change to RAID. Does this disc even need RAID? When I try to install raid drivers I get this message:

My motherboard:
ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING, Socket-AM4

My SSD:
Kingston A1000 480GB M.2 SSD

I can also add that all other drivers are updated.

Leave the AHCI-RAID thing alone.
You do NOT need that RAID option.

It doesn't appear in Windows...

Does it appear in Disk Management? It may just need to be Initialized.

Can it be the second one here?

Yes, it is that second one.
But I meant Disk Management, not Device Manager.

Where do I find it? I am not so good with this stuff.

Nevermind I found it, but it says its unknown.

Right click on the Start icon at bottom left.
Disk Management should be in menu that pops up

Okay never mind, I just fixed it by adding it! Thank you so much. :-D
