I can see my second hard drive in Device manager but not in 'My Computer'

I can see my second hard drive in Device manager but not in 'My Computer'

I have been facing this problem for quite sometime. I can see the drive on Disk Management but not on “Mycomputer”. On Disk management the drive States "UNALLOCATED". I've tried everything possible but to no avail. I actually have some 120 GB of data in it and a little skeptical to do any kind of formatting of changes. I don't wanna or can't lose any data from the drive at any cost. I have XP as my operating system.

Anything that you can suggest!!.

let me know if you have any suggestion

You can also try to use Advanced File Recovery. So many times this little program got me out of a tight squeeze.
