Commonly, external hard drives will acquire power from the computer it is connected to. It is possible, though, to connect external hard drives to an outlet and permanently to the computer, replacing the previous hard drive, though I highly do not recommend such.
How do you find different drives on your computer?
The computer should automatically pick up these drives. To browse them, open up 'My Computer'. If you are having trouble, if no drives appear under 'My Computer' then look for a driver CD and install that software, or perhaps even change the USB ports of the drives and the computer could then pick them up.
