Hello,

 

Are you able to see the drive in Windows Explorer ?

 

What drive type do you select in Configure Storage  Try selecting Disk Drive.

is the second drive large enough and does it have lots of free disk space as I believe we block/hide any drives that are too small or do not have enough space (not sure of value)
