So I am using my original Hard Drive and that works great buy my 2nd 750GB HDD is not showing up in Windows. How do I fix this? I formatted it in Windows setup and made a new partition with it but did not install Windows and it still doesn't show up in Windows 8. What do I do?

You need to initialize it in Disk Management. You can also do that via command line using diskpart.

We customize Asus, MSI, and Clevo laptops!

If that doesn't work, when I setup my 1 TB drive I didn't have my computer plugged in and it was running so slow it wouldn't recognize it. So I plugged it in and it recognized it in disk management.
