How to know what drive is which?

Just got my PC, I've got three drives, one is 500GB which is easily identfied as the other 2 are 1TB. However I can't work out which is which? One is a HDD and the other a SSD but they're just labeled as D: and E:

Probably being really dumb, many thanks.

Rather then delete the post, can you let people know how you found it out, as Im sure others have the same question and then they can search the forum and find the answer :D

Good idea!

I went to Device Manager --> Disk Drives --> Right Clicked on the drive I was trying to indentify --> Properties --> Volumes --> It'll then tell you what volume is registered to that drive.

Hope that is clear enough? :)

You should also be able to tell in Task Manager. Go to "performance", then select the disks and there will be a name for the disk at the top of the page. As someone with two 500GB SSDs (plus another one externally) I feel your pain!
