A new disk must be initialised, partitioned [if required] and then formatted
before it is accessible to Windows or any applications.

You might need to be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group in order to perform some tasks.

Disk Management is a system utility for managing hard disks and the
partitions or volumes that they contain. With Disk Management, you can
initialize new disks, create volumes, and format volumes. Disk Management
enables you to perform most disk-related tasks without shutting down your
computer; most configuration changes take effect immediately.

To open Disk Management
Open Computer Management (Local).
In the console tree, click Disk Management.

To open Computer Management, click Start, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management.
For information about using Disk Management, in Computer Management, click
Help on the Action menu.
