Use Bitlocker to encrypt them and only you can access it using the password.

Dude! What happened to the editing?? Why all caps?? Planing to shout at someone??

On the question, as gameranand suggested used bitlocker. U can do that by right licking the drive and selecting the option to encrypt the drive using bitlocker.
