Hard Drive not showing all space

[bigguyjake]

Hey so I pulled my Caviar 250g hard-drive and built a new pc, for some reason only 110g are showing up available, does anyone know how I can fix? I think I got rid of the partition in it but I if i didn't I don't see why its now showing up on my new PC, I have windows 7 ultimate and I had it on my old build and the HD worked just fine.

Ok, so I ran some tests with WD software, the partition is still there and so is the data, anyone know why I wouldn't be able to access it through Windows?

Not really sure here on what you did.


If you had both partitions on your old system and just added it to your new system then they should both be visible. However, if you deleted the partition then you'll have to repartition and format it before windows will see it.
