Error when converting SSD from dynamic to basic

motomat86

Originally this 2TB Sata SSD was part of a striped volume of 3 identical ssds.   2 of the 3 converted fine and are now in PCs working great, this one fails to be cleaned, and fails to convert to basic.  Any tips would be great

According to docs right click the disc (where it says DIsk 0 in grey not the unallocated partition) and click Covert to basic disk

Or run "convert basic" diskpart command

The other possibility is to run a Linux USB stick and use gparted to re-create the GPT partition table.
