Hi,
I just upgrade my old Dell Inspiron 14R 5421 with SSD. The old hdd i put in the hdd caddy at optical drive. I already install Windows 10 (fresh install) at the SSD. In BIOS detect both drive (SSD & old hdd) In Disk Management also detect the both drive. But in My Computer only show SSD. The old hdd drive cannot view. I already update all driver but still cannot view the old hdd drive. Anyone can help me? Thank you   |

Look at your own screenshot, no drive letter is assigned to them Thanks!!!Assign a drive letter to them But the best method is to transfer the data inside there to another disk, remove all partitions then create a single partition inside the 2nd HDD And change it to GPT instead of MBR Its work  |
