I am trying to access a 1TB hard drive, but disk management will not allow it to happen. I have tried to assign it a drive letter, but again no go. Disk Management screenshot attached.
Not sure if you can make out the disk management screenshot, but the problem is with disk 4. It shows up with 931.08 GB of free space, then449 healthy (recovery partition). Nothing that I have done allows me to do anything with this drive.
At one time it did house a main operating system on another computer. I tore that one down and wanted to salvage a perfectly good drive to put into a new unit thus having three hard drives in that unit. After formatting the drive, what you see in the screenshot is what I have gotten.
