It's intentional and not messed up. When this PC was first built, it had only one HDD on it, and some time later, I added additional hard drives. I wanted to migrate my OS installation ONLY to another drive without having to re-install all my programs at the time, so I migrated my OS to a...

Also, I don't know if this means anything, but when I went to plug in a thumbdrive to set up boot media, the thumbdrive is showing up in my Device Manager as "Mass Storage" and in Disk Management, it shows up as a partitioned drive that's just like the M.2; it's partitioned, but with no volume...

NVMe M.2 Slot 1 on my Motherboard has an M.2 designated as Drive J:/ which contains my Windows OS installation. NVMe M.2 Slot 2 on my Motherboard has an M.2 designated as Drive C:/ which contains all my installed software and user information, as per a traditional C:/ drive on most systems.

I could attempt to. Currently Slot 1 contains my OS and Slot 2 contains what would essentially by my traditional C: drive, so I'm not sure if it'll cause complications if they're moved, but I'll first move the M.2 to Slot 4 or 5 first, then if those don't work, I'll try 1 or 2.

It's an ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI, part number 90MB1CL0-M0EAY0. M.2 1, 2, and 3 slots are occupied (the NVMe drive in question is in slot 3), and all four of the available SATA ports are occupied by 3 HDDs and a single SSD. And as to his question, he asked if I had updated my mobo BIOS...

I tried doing it with PowerShell and get the same exact outcome; it hangs up during the partition creation process. Disk Management shows it successfully created the partition, but I can't do anything with it, and can't create a new volume or assign it a drive letter.

Alright, I'll give that a shot; I won't be able to do it right now, but I'll do so ASAP later tonight.

I looked it up, but if you're referring to the MiniTool Partition Wizard, it seems the Bootable version only comes with the paid versions. Was there something else you were referring to?

Just checked and downloaded the new BIOS update, and nothing. Still the same errors. I appreciate the check; I looked into it and did the change and tried it just to see, but no luck, still same outcome. I already updated the firmware (see original post), so that's not the issue either. I've...

So I've run into a particularly strange predicament with a new M.2 drive that I've bought, a WD BLACK SN770 2TB. This is my third M.2 I've installed in my PC, and I'm using it strictly for installing VST instruments for music composition software I have. I'm currently running Win11, and this PC...
