password protect a second drive



I am adding a second hard drive to my windows xp Pro computer. I will
fomrat it as NTFS and use the whole drive as a complete partition. My plan
is to use this as a backup drive for data. Is there is a simple way in
Windows XP (without a third party program) to password protect this entire
drive so only I can access it. Even if I can only protect certain folders
on the second drive that would be helpful-without protecting the whole extra
drive! I do not want to compress the files. I am the only person with
administrative rights to this computer.
Thanks
