At the risk of having missed something earlier in the thread, it sounds to 
me like the drive hasn't actually yet been partitioned and formatted - until 
it's been partitioned and formatted, there won't be anything to see in 
Explorer. Did you partition it and format it when you got it home from the 
shop? They usually come with instructions (when supplied in retail packages) 
relating to how to make them usable. The don't usually come pre-partitioned 
and formatted, as they don't know what system you are going to be using.
