That is the drive that your operating system is on, to format that drive would also remove your operating system. It would be akin to self-destruction. If you added a new drive and it is not showing up, then you may need to initialize it.
To initialize go to: Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Storage>Disk Management. Right click on the new hard disk (not your c drive) and click initialize disk.It will give you the option of master boot record or gpt. Choose master boot record.
Once initialized you will be able to format it. Again, I think your problem is that you are trying to format the drive with you operating system on it, that tends not to work.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
