    You can't see it in disk management too? As unformatted, no partition, it's normal that it won't show up in My Computer.
    New disk? If not, replace SMART with CDI by the way.

    Brand new from the store, it detects it, when I enter the status system, it can be seen.

    You had to enter disk management ...
    In Start-> run, enter:
    diskmgmt.msc

    It does not detect but writes unallocated.

    Maybe because you have to ... allocate? Now create as many partitions as you want with this "disk management" and assign them letters.
    That's all. After this action, these partitions will be visible in My Computer.

    Come on, I'm a little green on this topic, so how do I allocate the partition?

    Right-click on unallocated space and select - "new simple volume ..." and so on.

    Okay, resolved, all you had to do was add a new volume and format the drive. Thank you for your help
