So I guess windows is able to recognize there's a 'foreign' disk but I can't seem to initialize it. GPT: disk is not convertible because size is less than minimum required for GPT disk

The first thing the disk management prompt is that it ask me to initialize disk with either 'MBR' or 'GPT' Running the windows install wizard again to see if I can create new partition for the ssd but it's only showing 0mb and can't 'extend' or 'new'Ģ. I thought I was able to 'create new' the sdd and just went on with the windows install on the HD.īut now when I boot into windows 10 on the hd, my sdd is not recognized/shown.ġ. Here, you need to choose an unallocated space on the SSD drive and click Next to continue. Click Migrate OS to SSD in the left panel and click Next. 8) choose to do a custom installation and then delete everypartition on your main HDD/SSD. Install and open AOMEI Partition Assistant Pro in your Windows 10 computer. NVMe SSD drives are available on select Dell. 7) reboot and press F12, choose the USB flash drive as bootable device. The current Dell Windows 10 media will fail to install on computers that are configured with both Serial ATA (SATA) Hard Disk Drives (hard drive)s and Non-Volatile Memory (NVMe) high-performance Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) Solid-State Drives (SSDs). 5) check if UEFI is the selected BIOS mode (no launchCSM) 6) press F10 to save and exit.

īUT during the installation wizard, I messed with the ssd partitions: I deleted the system reserve (150mb ish) & primary and to try to create only 1 whole partition for the ssd. 4) look if F12 boot menu is enabled, if not, enabled it. But I wanted to install windows onto my 1tb HD (because reasons) so I created a bootable usb to install windows 10. I originally had windows installed on the ssd. I would really appreciate inputs to help fixing my Samsung 840evo sdd
