    My wife's Dell came with 2 160G HD's and I can only find one that I can access. I have checked all the connections inside the box and activated it in the boot menu. But I still don't see it. The Everest report is attached.

    Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out, it's combined into one. Just didn't have enough coffee this morning I guess.rolleyes

    Hi

    Yes Dell like other OEMs do tend to partition the drives, in a few ways, 1. For main C: drive and then one for the recovery partition, or 2. if they supply a restore CD/DVD a main C: partition for OS and a data one for you.
