Harddrive not working??

[JCooper]

I have one ssd (with os) and a 1tb harddrive, the HDD shows up in bios but not anywhere else. 

Is there anyway to fix this as the drive is spinning up and everything

So you can see it in bios, can you ever see it in the file explorer under "this pc" or "my computer"

This could mean that your HDD is not formatted/partitioned.

This guide uses the command prompt and diskpart which could work

try the disk part utility, open a admin command prompt,  type diskpart once you get to the prompt should say diskpart>  use the command list disk.  does it list the second disk?

Try changing SATA ports see if that helps or different cables

Damn, Check your BIOS/UEFI some OEM's require you to enable specific SATA ports HP & DELL both come to mind.
