| | New DELL PC, USB Ext 1TB HD not recognized USB Drive is WD10EVDS, 1TB in a dual StarTech.com enclosure/toaster. PC is a DELL XPS 8100. From what I've been able to tell (initial hardware screen displays 1 sec then moves on, so not enough time to read): American MegaTrends, V02.67 BIOS A03 dated 12/9/2009 Internal Drives are 1TBx2 Raid 1, Mirrored Using F2 during boot, the Ext HD "seems" to be recognized, but Windows 7 Explorer does NOT list device. The USB Ext Drive is brand new, never used and is destined to be a data store for TIVO files. If BIOS is the issue, a link to update would be helpful. Thx in advance for any help. |

| | Has the new drive been "prepared" and/or set up in Windows? Go to Control Panel/System Security and then click on Create and Format Hard Disc Partitions under Administrative Tools. You can format the new drive in this panel and make it active. |
