Need help on my new computer

[TOO S0BER]

Ok, I've built my dream machine and got it to post the first time (YAY!). I have 2 500GB WD Caviar Black HDDS and one OCZ 60 GB SSD on Windows 7 Home Premium. How do I format my HDDs? Other videos are dated and cant help.

Are they new? You don't need to format them if new, just make sure they are recognized in BIOS and then enable them in Disk Manager. I'm not sitting front of a windows 7 machine right now, but search disk manager and you should find it. You can set up partitions and stuff there as well, and if you really need to run the format as well.

To add to this, you can get to it by going onto the Windows 7 start menu, right click Computer and click Manage, and Disk Management will be on the list on the side.
