Upgrading Your VAIO Computer
Identifying the Additional Hard Disk Space

format.
To identify the additional hard disk space
1 Log on to Windows as a user with administrator rights.
2 Click Start and right-click Computer.
3 Select Manage from the menu.
The Computer Management window appears.
4 Under the file directory on the right, double-click Storage and then Disk Management.
5 Right-click on the newly installed, unformatted hard disk (disk label identified with red marking) and select Initialize Disk
from the menu.
6 Click on the allocated area of the disk.
7 Right-click the area and select New Partition from the menu.
The New Partition wizard window appears.
8 Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
The Windows Vista operating system recognizes the new hard disk drive and applies the NTFS format.
