Hard Drives

I need help to partition my hard drive on my Windows machine. How do I begin the process? Do I need to back-up my files on the main hard-drive before starting or it is entirely unnecessary? What precautions should I follow in carrying out the partitioning? Once I am done with the task at hand, what do I do next? I would be grateful for simple steps to accomplish my mission.

In my pc I want to use two hard drive i.e. second hard drive as slave. I have connected the 2nd HDD to motherboard’s SATA port using SATA cable but pc is not showing any other drives in My Computer. I have also to connect the 2nd hard drive using SATA to USB cable but not successful.

I own the WD Cloud device 2TB and a while ago I bought a WD Green 2TB that now lives inside a Logilink UA0107 USB 3 case. Although the drive is perfectly usable through Windows 8 and Ubuntu box, WD Cloud refuses to recognize it. I've formatted the drive a few times (exFAT, NTFS, ext4) but nothing changed. What can be done?
