[Mamere782]

ACER Preditor Helios 300 Laptop
Installed 2 WD Black NVME M2 2280 1tb ea Windows installed on drive C, but second HD IS GRAYED OUT and is not recognized. How do I get Win 10 to recognize second drive? I have never done this before, so I need a walkthrough or a video.
Thanks

You might also check to make sure that the existing boot drive is partitioned as GPT and not MBR. If the boot drive is partitioned as MBR, it could actually be preventing the OS from seeing the 2nd drive.

To check, from Disk Management, right click on the gray block labeled Disk0 (or Disk1, Disk2, etc whichever is the disk that corresponds to the one that contains your boot volume), hit Properties, then click on the Volumes tab to display information about the volumes contained on the disk. That screen will provide the partition information in the Partition Style field.

Was this ever solved or not? OP has posted this month, but not to this thread.
