I know that this might be a kind of silly question. If I want to add another HDD in a PC that already has an OS how do i go about partitioning and formatting the drive? Where I get the option?
 
um, is this just a drive for storage or are you going to dual boot with another o/s? if using disk management like said above it will ask you the amount of space to use, the file alloc table type and then it will format it for you and ready to use as a slave drive.
 
It is to be used as storage, not to multi-boot. so since it already has an OS on the other drive, how do i partition it?
 
Okay I have to use disk management to partition it? I know for the first drive it the OS CD but i wanted to know for the 2nd.
 
Thanks! But i still dont get it. the 2nd gets partition when the PC boots on to the desktop?
