Ultrabay 2nd HDD Adapter

#1 Post by vestarriol » Sun Jan 08, 2006 5:38 pm

I have installed a new hard drive in the ultrabay adapter, Toshiba MK4026. The hard drive shows up in the Device Manager under disk drives, but there is way to select this drive from the My Computer screen. How do I change this? Thanks.

Navigate to Control Panel-->Performance and Maintenance-->Administrative Tools-->Computer Management. In the left panel, select "Disk Management".

The Ultrabay HD will show up as Disk1. Make sure it's partitioned & formatted. If it its, click in the area that describes the size of the partition, right click and select "change drive letter and path". That takes you to a box where you can add a drive letter.
