Looking for some help

[Echeesy]

Hi,

 

I have an old hdd from my old dell computer that Im trying to retrieve some files from. I have the hdd plugged in, it shows up in my BIOS but not in windows. I tried disconnecting my 2 ssd to just boot from the old hdd but no luck. The hdd does show up in disk management but just says unallocated for the full 1tb?

Am I doing something wrong and is there anything else I can try??

 

Thank you!

you need to assign a letter in disk management

 

right click the drive Change drive letter or path

think your going to need to rebuild MBR (ccan use something like aomei to do this easily)  or use a recovery software to recover the files
