P6-2110
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to add a second hardrive to my system: P6-2110 Windows 10 64 bit.

 

I can get the system to only recognize main drive and DVD or the main drive and second hardrive.

 

The second hardrive is receiving power. I have tried swapping the SATA cables between the DVD and second hardware with the same result.

 

I went to Windows device manager and "Add a Device" and it did not find the second hardrive. I ask Windows to Scan for hardware changes and it nothing new eventhough the second hardrive is running. I tried to update the SATA driver and it returned that I have the latest version.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

Boot into the BIOS and see if the second hard drive is recognized.
