My SSD won't Partition

Johnmakuta

Whenever I try to do it it says there isn't enough room but it's empty. I am well under the data capacity. I can't even partition 1 gb in a 240 GB drive. It's an OCZ Arc 100.

You have to shrink the drive first, then you can make a partition from the unallocated space.

Dude, that was literally just to test if I made a super small partition it would make a difference.

Why would that help?

Because all your Disk space is now allocated to a disk / single partition, if you want to create an extra partition you will need to unallocate some space from an existing volume.

 

After which you can create a new partition from the unallocated space.

Clean and format it using diskpart: 

The guide is for a USB problem but same can be used to properly format a HDD or SSD.
