Checking and Initialising the drive in the Windows OS
Your drive(s) should now be ready to use, but before you can access the drive in your Windows OS you need to
check that the disc is recognised in the Windows Disk Management software and you may need to initialise and
format the disc.
1. Open Windows Disk Management by right clicking on “My Computer” and selecting “Manage”, on the
Computer Management screen expand the storage section and select “Disk Management”.
2. As you can see above the new drive has been recognised as “Disk 1” but has not been initialised, if this is
the case then the “Initialise and Convert Disk Wizard” will appear when you open Disk Management.
