Drives that show up under Hard Disks must be identified as a fixed disk, but flash disks generally show up as removable, so you won't see them under the Hard Disk category.

What is the difference between ntfs and quick ntfs?

There is no such thing as "Quick NTFS." I assume you are referring to the Windows XP installation screen where you are asked to format the hard drive. The choices presented are:Format the drive as NTFSFormat the drive as NTFS (quick)Format the drive as FAT32 - This will not appear on drives over 32 GBFormat the drive as FAT32 (quick) - This will not appear on drives over 32 GB"Quick" in this context refers to how the installer formats the drive. A regular format will check the drive for errors, while a quick format will not. On a larger hard drive, a full format can take several minutes, while the quick format is much faster.


If you have two hard drives how do you access the second drive?

I'm assuming your using Windows. You can see the drives by double clicking "My Computer" on your desktop. From there you can double click on the drives to see the contents. If you can't see the other drive, make sure its installed properly.
