So i bought an WD Black, and i can't see it on the explorer, It shows on the bios and on speccy, i bought it for my new pc (which some parts still needs to arrive), so i wanted to move some files to it because i'm getting short on space so i connected it to my old pc and this happened, do i need to install a driver or something?
