I have an older desktop PC running WinXP that crashed. I had 2 - 320GB hard drives. I have mounted the drives in an external enclosure, but can't get onto the drives with a new core i7 desktop running Win7. I don't see the drive when I try to access them

through 'my computer', but when I run 'Computer Management' and then 'Disk Management', the console SEES the drive and gives this info:

It shows as a volume with no drive letter - only as 'Disk 10'

Layout: Simple

Type: Basic

File System: none shown

Status: Healthy (Active, Primary Partition)

Capacity: 298.09 GB

Free Space: 298.09 %

Free: 100%

Fault Tolerance: No

Overhead: 0%

It is shown as being 'Online' There IS data on the disk even though it shows 100% empty.....so what does that indicate?

 

If I right click on the drive, ONLY the 'Delete Volume: and 'Help' are active - everything else is greyed out so I can 't change anything.

 

So, help would sincerely be appreciated.
