Unallocated HD - can't 'Import Foreign Disks'

pencil · 2005-01-08 20:29:51

Hi all, I have a 200GB HD in one of these Zynet HD Enclosure connected over USB. In 'Disk Management' I can see the Disk (Disk 3, Dynamic 186.1 GB, Online) but it is 'Unallocated', I can't see it in explorer and I cannot 'Import Foreign Disks'. What is the story with this? anyone know what to do?

Hangs head in absolute shame..... no

Should I 'Convert it to a basic disk' or make a 'new volume'?
