I nearly forgot to mention this, but after installing Windows 7, and formatting both HDDs in my computer during the installation, my Operating System only found one of the HDDs (the one on which it was installed).
Now that I think about it that's pretty normal, since the new user interface during the installation doesn't require you to set a drive letter nor filesystem when you format a hard drive.
Anyway, here's the fix:
Start -> Right-click on computer -> Manage -> Disk management -> select correct drive -> format to NTFS (or FAT32, but why would you :x) -> Right-click and choose 'assign drive letter'
It'd probably be a good idea to do this as soon as you boot for the first time, else you'll end up with your main hdd being C:\ and your other one being M:\ (like mine is) which is a bit silly.
