then you will first need to prepare the hard drive for use. From the
main desktop, right-click on “My Computer” (“Computer” in Vista), then
select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select Disk
Management from the left window panel.

to confirm it’s the correct hard drive) and then right-click in the section
that says “Unallocated” and select “New Partition”.
The New Partition Wizard will appear. Follow the instructions in the
wizard to complete setting up the drive. Once complete, the Disk
should show up as “Healthy” with a drive letter assigned (ie. E:). This
