hey, i just bought this laptop http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220403
like 2 weeks ago or so. i had to use my recovery disks since for some odd reason it started to run super slow. so once i used the disks and had the factory stuff back, the laptop was all fine. but when i looked at the "computer" page where it shows the hard drive, it only shows 1 of my hard drives. I used to have 2 of them but now it's only 1 of them. and the total size of the hard drive is 260 GB free of 287. I was wondering if anyone can help me or i should just send it for them to fix. i got the 2year manufacturers warranty + an additional 1 year added on.
thing I have tired
*i tried to change the hard drive to raid in the BIOS then press ctrl+i on the splash screen but i get some error saying windows failed.
I been searching the asus forums for a while but had no luck on finding how to get the other hard drive back. x_x

In the device manager, does it show two drives or just your main drive?
-
I guessing just one.

i not sure which the drive is...or where to find the drive -
You only have one hard drive like before. The only difference is that the laptop came with 2 partitions. Your total 287gb seems about right given the fact that there's a hidden recovery partition in your hard drive.
