turn a flash drive into a linux install disk, plug it in, boot from it, choose the 2nd hdd as destination. (I'd recommend removing the 1st hdd that you have your main os on first so you don't get em mixed up on accident).

once done you can reformat the flash drive and it will function as normal.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W
