Device and Disk Manager showing wrong drive

[Jim NZPC]

Hi everyone,

I am having some issues with my new SSD.

I just installed a new 1TB 850 EVO. Prior to this, I was running a 250GB 850 EVO as my boot drive, and a 2TB HDD storage/game drive. Those haven't been changed. Windows is still running on the 250GB.

I hit some issues initially after initializing and formatting the new drive in disk manager. After a restart, it was booting to BIOS, since I stupidly put the new drive ahead of the boot drive in the SATA ports. 

I swapped them around and made sure the boot priority was configured in BIOS and that seems to have solved the boot issue. I just selected the 250GB as priority and left the rest alone.

However, I am having issues with device and disk manager: the new SSD is showing as a 250GB EVO and the event history seems to be back to front - the 250GB is showing the time stamps of the 1TB and vice versa. It also says that one of the devices is not migrated. Is this an issue?

Hopefully the image attached show the issues I'm having - in Disk, Device and Task Manager, it shows as a 250GB model, yet in BIOS and Samsung Magician it shows as a the 1TB

Thank you in advance

first, edit your post and use automatic font colors, for night time users, it's basically invisible..

 

try to run windows repair, see if that can iron it out, otherwise, just reinstall windows

Hello Changis,

 

Thank you for the heads up regarding night time mode. Hopefully text should appear properly now. 

Do you have a link to any useful videos of Windows Repair? I have been a Windows 7 user for the past 6 years, and have only just started using Windows 10 with this build and really don't want to screw things up any further.

 

Thanks
