ok guys, new problem.
I have connected the new drive. now i have the following set-up.
primary IDE master = dvdrom (g:)
Primary IDE slave = 160gb Samsung hdd (e:)
Primary SATA master = 160gb Western Digital hdd (C:)
Primary SATA Slave = New Hitatchi 250gb hdd (?
The problem is this. Whilst the new drive shows up in the BIOS and on Vista's device manager, the darn thing refuses to show up anywhere else.
I assume I need to format it as it was factory-sealed. I cannot find it in the windows directory or in the command prompt to perform the format operation and I cannot find how to do it from the device manager.
Help?!?
