adding a new ssd

[Guest sadri0527]

Hi,

 

i plugged yesterday a ssd nvme m.2 in my laptop, windows and everything is on the hdd, i wanted my windows on the ssd with a fresh installation but it got fucked up,

1 my hdd is 1 tb but i can only see 465 gb on it the rest dissapeard. but it still boots windows.

2. i can only see my ssd in the rapid technology, but no where else shows the ssd up, disk manager, cmd prompt diskpart,

 

what happend?

 

thank you

get windows installation and try installing windows on nvme, also change controller to AHCI, which theoreticly shouldn't matter in nvme, but maybe

What do you see in the BIOS? Does it show the size or type of the HDD? And what do disk management and/or diskpart show?

 

465GB is the size I'd expect from a 500GB harddisk (931GB for a 1TB harddisk), so either it's partitioned in a strange way, or it really is a 500GB harddisk.

If the harddisk size checks out, I recommend taking out the HDD, make sure the storage controller is set to AHCI mode in the BIOS, and try installing Windows on the SSD again.
