Not sure why the new drive isn't showing up, but you can add it to the "Send to..." menu.

I believe your problem is the "send to" function is for removable drives. Your H drive is connected by a SATA cable or it is a NVME drive, correct? To copy or move information to an internal drive (Sata or NVME) you have to pull up the drive in Explorer, or my computer etc....
Open the drive and then drag and drop, or cut and paste, or copy and paste the information.

Just curious, do you really need an H partition. I have been heavy computing for 30 years and never needed different partitions on my internal or external drives. Thanks.

The new drive installed is labeled "H' and has no partitions.. the external USB 1Gb hard drive has partitions.. but "H" is the entire drive label..

I put LINUX on a separate partition. I've installed various VMs in separate partitions. My F: drive used to be my C: drive until I replaced C: with an SSD.
Oh yes, I've been computing for 55 years noob

45 years computing here. Recently bought a new Dell Win 11 desktop. 500Gb SSD plus 2Tb factory installed SATA drive. Factory installed and labeled them as C: and H: drives. Now, if I open a file's properties on the C drive, and then select the 'more properties' line at the bottom, I get a 'send to' option among the next set of options. When I select that the H: drive comes up as an available option.
This doesn't answer the OPs question other than to say it should work. Must be an obscure setting somewhere that I, for one, have never come across!

The above is what you are trying to do. But to me there are too many options to make it easy to follow. So try this.
On your computer you need a run command and not just the search box at the bottom of the screen. So
- Either press the and hold the windows key on your keyboard and then press the R and the run box will pop up. Alternatively you try right clicking on the little windows icon on the bottom left of the screen and then select RUN
- In the Run window type in shell : sendto and press enter. EDIT gotta love our software it keeps adding a smiley in the shell command so I had to add spaces to make it dispaly. That is supposed to be type shell then a colon then sendto with no spaces and no quotes
- the Send To window should open
- Click and drag that new send to window out of the way but leave it open
- Now use file explorer or whatever method you are used to and navigate your drives and find the H drive
- Right click on the H drive and select copy
- Now go back to the Send To window that you dragged out of the way
- In the Send To window pick an blank space and right click and select Paste Shortcut
- Wait a few seconds and the H drive will show up
- Close the Send To window
- Test
