I thought it's easy to add a ram and hard disk to my beloved computer and now it's so mad it recover itself using its HP factory recovery backup hard disk.
So I'm using the motherboard ASUS H81M-E, it has:
2 ddr3 RAM slots
2 SATA slots 6Gb/s and
2 SATA slots 3Gb/s

Before adding thing, I am using:
1 8GB ddr3 RAM
1 SDD 512GB to 6gb/s slot (Originally install windows 7 in it)
1 HP factory recovery backup hard disk to 6gb/s slot
1 1TB hard disk to 3gb/s slot

I inserted/added:
1 8GB ddr3 RAM
1 3TB hard disk to 3gb/s slot

I connected them and when i start the computer, it somehow boosted up with HP factory recovery backup hard disk and now
the computer just did recovery process itself, and it is now using HP system and windows 7

Also, the new recovered windows does not identify my 3TB hard disk and my SDD hard disk
i hate HP system with win7
help
how do I go back to original state???

The other PC spec:
intel i5 CPU (forgot the number)
nvidia geforce gtx 960
 
PS:
I don't mind I got my hard disks formatted. 'cuz that's what i want to do as well
 
You do not mention having checked the boot order in the BIOS, have you done this?

Can you upload an expanded screenshot of Disk Manager for us;

1. Click on the Start button and then choose Control Panel.
2. Click on the System and Security link.
Note: If you're viewing the Large icons or Small iconsview of Control Panel, you won't see this link so just click on the Administrative Tools icon and skip to Step 4.
3. In the System and Security window, click on the Administrative Tools heading located near the bottom of the window.
4. In the Administrative Tools window, double-click on the Computer Management icon.
5. When Computer Management opens, click on Disk Management on the left side of the window, located under Storage.

After a brief loading period, Disk Management should now appear on the right side of the Computer Management window.

Note: If you don't see Disk Management listed, you may need to click on the |> icon to the left of the Storage icon.
