XPS 8700 - Adding second HDD

$

Hello all, 

I just took delivery of a new XPS 8700 with a 2 TB HDD and a 32 GB SSD.  I am attempting to install another 1 TB HDD but cannot access it.  It shows up in the BIOS, but not in Disk Management.  I suspect I need to change the BIOS or perhaps the registry from RAID to something else (perhaps AHCI), but there is a warning about doing so.  Obviously, I don't want to lose the existing SSD cache functionality, but I'm kinda in over my head about how to configure my new computer with a second HDD.  I have done some searching but cannot seem to find any concrete advice on exactly what I need to do.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

Erik
