I just finished building my new computer and it's my first time using an SSD along with a HDD. I installed Windows 10 onto the SSD and when I look in Windows Explorer the HDD does not show up however, in the BIOS the hard drive is detected. I tried booting to the HDD but it loaded me into the SSD anyways. Do I need to format the HDD or something? Am I missing something?

Does it appear in Disk Management? Probably.
You probably just need to Initialize it, New Simple Volume, Format, and give it a drive letter.
