My Computer Doesn't "See" External Hard Drives

It's possible that the computer sees them but hasn't assigned them a letter to show up under "This PC". You can use disk management to see if they are there and just need to be initialized and\or a drive letter assigned to them.
To get to disk management you can right click the windows option in the bottom right of the screen and it will be an option in the menu that pops up.
