Have you checked Disk Management? You may need to assign it partitions.

Also did you make sure the power adapter and sata cables are plugged in correctly? also disk management. check there like Oshino said. May need to assign it and format for the computer to read it.

Strange, what does it say in the bios? What do you see exactly when your open up the disk management?

its disk 1. disk 0 is your main harddrive. Basically, the black means it unformatted.

Have you tried switching the cable and SATA port you're using? If it's on a different SATA controller to your other drive(s), you may need to install the drivers for the controller. 

 

Also, could you post a screenshot of your diskmanagement screen? Sometimes people miss the drive.

It's disk 1 at the bottom. You need to right click the hashed rectangle and then select create new volume (or something similar)
