Elsullo2 installed a new, second hard drive into a desktop PC. But Windows doesn't see it.

Before we discuss your problem, let's consider why you would want a second hard drive in your PC. If you simply want to increase your internal storage, my advice below should help you. If you want to set up a RAID, see How to Set Up RAID on Your PC.
But please don't install a second internal drive for backup. The same power surge, malware, fire, or burglar that might deprive you of everything on your main hard drive will likely also rob you of your backup. For a better solution, see How Do I Backup?
