hdd fucked up?

[Guest sadri0527]

hi

this is my hard drive, on this drive used to be windows 10 active. but bought a ssd and formatted this one.

but i can't activate the one with  630.43 gb

 

 

and if i want to make a new volume it rejects with - the expansion is smaller than the minimum size.

 

i'm kinda out of options, searched on google and youtube for similar problems.

 

can someone help?

Might be because it's surrounded by restore partitions.

What i would do is create a gparted usb drive and use that to try and create a partition. Maybe that can get the job done.

Not sure why you have so many partitions (can't read that alnguage, unfortunately). 

But if this is a drive you don't care about the data on (kinda sounds like it to me), then just delete all the volumes, then create one for the entire disk.

if not, delete the ones you don't need, and try again with a simple volume using all that space. If that doesn't work more intensive solutions like wiping part/all of the disk, or using DISKPART (windows), or fdisk/mkfs or gparted (linux) would be the next steps

Where have you installed your Windows? Could you send a picture of your other disks in disk management?
Since it appears that you haven't properly formatted your disk and then accidentally installed Windows on this drive again.

It should look something like the attached picture.
(Spoiler translated to Dutch)

 

Spoiler

Op welke schijf heb je Windows geïnstalleerd? En zou je eventueel een screenshot van alle schijven in schijfbeheer kunnen sturen?
Het lijkt erop alsof je je harde schijf niet volledig geformatteerd hebt, en daarna per ongeluk weer Windows erop geïnstalleerd hebt.

Als alles OK is dan zouden je schijven er ongeveer uit moeten zien zoals op mijn foto.

It appears that some of your system partitions, such as restore and OEM are still on your old disk. If you wipe the old disk with tools such as diskpart you risk that your computer will not boot again.

If I were you I would re-install Windows.
First, save all your data to an external disk. Then, during Windows installation, wipe and format every drive in the system. Then select the disk you would like to install onto.
