Sam are you trying to "Mirror" the drive which is to have a second drive duplicate the first and will take over if first drive fails?

To "Ghost" a drive is referring to a Symantec program called Ghost which can copy a drive to a compressed file that would be used to restore the drive as it was the day you copied it. It is a back-up program. We use it at work to create an image file to load on to multiple computers that we want to be set up the exact same way.

It sounds like you have somehow copied (moved) some system files to your second disc removing themfrom the primary. I would try using Restore to go back to a time when those files are in the right location.

You probably can't see those files on your data drive because your Explorer settings are set to default. Open Explorer and click on Tools/Folder Options. Then in that screen click on the View tab at the top. Set Hidden Files and Folders to Show, uncheck Hide Extensions For Known File Types, and uncheck Hide Protected Operating System Files. Click Apply at bottom and then Apply to All Folders at the top. Then you will be able to see everything on your drives.
