HDD not sensed

[ryane]

So I just finished building my new rig and everything but apparently it is not sensing the internal HDD but only my boot SSD. How should I go about fixing this? Thanks!

Make sure the drive's power and data connectors are firmly plugged into the sockets, also make sure the drive is spinning up (listen for a whirring and humming sound from the drive.)

did you format the drive yet? if not, i believe its called "drive manager" on windows, but i'm pretty sure a native english speaker can correct that for me.

Go to disk management and activate the drive

You need to format the hard drive use the ol' google machine on how to do this, it is a rather simple straight forward process

Im in the disk management but the disk does not even exist in the listing. I opened up the casing and the disk appears to be spinning because I felt the vibration. When I list disk in disk part in cmd, the drive shows up as well but somehow I just dont see it where I want it to be.

Try following this and see if it shows up.

It's called Disk Management. You were pretty close.
