Yeah, I see a drive with 1863GB, which is my 2TB drive. Drives don't always come with the advertised space, correct?
Well they do but drive manufactures measure differently.
For example they consider 1000bytes a kilobyte when in reality its 1024 so over all you lose some space.
You must first initialise the drive.
Right click on the drive in disk management and selected 'initialize', you may have to reboot at this point.
Then in disk management again, right click on the unallocated space and select 'create new partition' or something similar.

Does it have a letter assigned to it? Does it say D: or E: or something? If it does not, right click it and chance the assigned letter to anything. It should show up.

On the left hit disk management.
Does it show up there?

I do not see an option for intialize.
where it gives the size does it say something like unallocated space?
