    Is windows 10 compatable with the 1 tb external hard drive?

    I can not get windows 10 to back up on a 1 tb iomega external hard drive. It gives the message that it need updated files.

    Where can I find them?

    Windows only sees one of the 1 TB hard drives insted of 3 hard drives

    Original title: Seeing hard drives

    I installed windows 10 on a new 320GB hard drive. I also installed two 1TB hard drives. My motherboard sees three hard drives but Windows only sees one of the 1 TB hard drives. What is the cause of this?
