hello,

let me expplain this: i've got all my stuff (including my OS) on a 120GB SSD and i've just plugged in a 160GB HDD for more storage because my SSD is almost full, but the HDD doesnt show up on explorer (not internet explorer). how do i fix this?

Presuming you've plugged it in correctly you need to open disk management and initialise the disk, then put a volume on it.

 

win key + R to open run

type diskmgmt.msc

right click and initialise the disk.

uhh..i've got that menu showing alot of stuff (its in dutch however), but where do i go now?

You'll see the disk in disk management that is not initialised. So you right click it and initialise it. Then after that completed, right click on the space to the right of it and put a new volume on it. Basically a case of going next next next finish bla bla.
