Question 980 pro m.2 unallocated

[instawookie]

I'm stumped on this one, kind of a new build, and had my m.2 come in late. Basically got the machine up and running sunday no issues with a 970(preloaded windows 11 from old machine)evo and an 860 and 850. Windows did its updates, Gigabyte app center did driver updates etc... My 980 Pro arrived today, plugged it in and it shows in Bios, Shows in samsung magician, and device manager, however I still can't utilize the m.2 it shows its unallocated,
Device settings for SCSI\Disk&Ven_NVMe&Prod_Samsung_SSD_980\5&38db6f38&1&000000 were not migrated from previous OS installation due to partial or ambiguous device match.

Any resolutions to this one? I've tried uninstalling the device, removing the NVME Controllers and refreshing those, Samsung magician says its up to date, and my Bios is current on the MB. Soon to test unplugging the 850 and 860 Evo.

The machine specs listed below. Thanks in advance.

Please show us a screencap of your Disk Management window.

What about a new Windows install on the new 980? Are you using an old OS from a different build?

Inside Disk Management right click on the drive, should be a big black box at the bottom of the screen that says unallocated, and tell it to allocate. It will go through some steps of how big do you want the drive to be ( default is max size) then you can pick a drive letter and name it. Once done the black box will turn blue with a drive letter and name.

Tried a system reset , still shows unallocated , after fighting some windows login issues I'm back to being able to tackle this again. Regardless even doing a windows reset it still shows unallocated lol. I'll keep you posted in second

Show Disk Management screenshot - with all drives visible.

Also add comments, to identify each drive, since you have multiple drives.

Currently windows is on the 970 evo
Steam games on the 860 evo
and the 850 is just resting there

And RightClick on that "Unallocated" space gives you what options?

Right-click in black area and choose "New simple volume".
