Hello, 

 

I'm using asrock AB350M pro4

 

I currently have 4 Drives

1 Hitachi 8TB Hard Drive

1 Hitachi 3GB Hard Drive

1 MX500 SSD

And  1 TB M.2 SSD MX500

 

So I just upgrade my SATA 500GB Crucial MX500 to 1TB M.2 MX500 But when I installed the 1TB M.2 MX500 in and boot into windows my 8TB drive had disappeared and I went into Disk management the 8TB was gone there too. After that I tried troubleshooting, I took out my M.2 out and boot into windows, The drive showed up again, then I tried changing the letter of the 8TB drive thinking it might have interfered with the M.2 but it didn't work either. I'm kinda lost right now, Can anyone tell me what happened? 

 

Thank you.

you unplug it and use a different sata port , not rocket science
