    Hello,I just received my antec mx-1 and 1tb wd hd and have encountered issues while trying to set it up on a win 7 64bit installation.
    I formatted it to ntfs and everytime it just makes it self the primary hdd. also,when I try to safely remove it it is saying it is currently being used by a software/window (everything is closed so I guess it's because it's primary). anyone has any idea how to I stop it from making itself primary? I thought about formatting it with usb first but I don't know if that matters.
