Well, as people may know I ordered a refurbished PC off PC World. Well, the PC I ordered was supposed to come with 1TB HD. Instead, I found 500. I contacted PC world and asked them if they would send me the promised 1TB HD. They refused, saying there is 1TB space on this computer.
I noticed this morning that when booting my computer, an option of two HDs comes up for a few seconds. I don't understand this. How am I supposed to use this other HD? Do I have to switch between one and the other every time? And does that require me turning my computer off everytime I want to switch?
