Second SSD

[lionwing]

Morning all

I have purchased a secondary SSD (2TB Sabrent Rocket Q M.2 NVMe) to install in my PCS System.

Yesterday evening I installed it into the spare m.2 slot on my ASUS® TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WiFi motherboard.

The PC boots up fine but I cannot enable the second SSD via Disk Management in Windows 10. It just doesn't show.

Checking the BIOS the secondary SSD is shown as it is in something called "storage pool" within Windows.

I have removed the drive and again reinstalled as a check against a faulty install but with the same results as above.

Are there any further steps I can follow to successfully get Windows 10 to recognise the new SSD?

Thank you.

Enter "Manage Storage Spaces" into windows search and see if new drive is listed there. If it is, delete it and it should be available in disk management for assignment, etc

Perfect.

That worked.

Thank you for your help.
