How is it listed in "My Computer"? (what drive letter?)

Do you have any other hard drives in the machine?

If so..Does the SATA have the OS or does the other drive?

Does device manager list it as a hard disk?

What kind (brand/model/size) drive is it?Did it come with any instalation software/drivers?
