Did you go into disk management, format, and partition the second drive to be usable by windows?

 

EDIT: To get into aforementioned disk management, go to run (Windows Button + R) and go to compmgmt.msc, select storage, and go to disk management. The reason the one drive works is because this happens automatically during installation of Windows.
