Way... way too many specs to list.
click on the background, hold cmd and hit ,

Select General
then you can check Hard disks that'll put it back on the desktop

Select Sidebar
check Hard disks

that'll put it on the finder sidebar

Sorry about that found the combo. Problem is both options are already checked and still no internal hard drive?

Thanks

Killall Finder seems to have found it.

Thanks.

Now Can I safely rename it?
