[SOLVED] Hybrid drive cannot be found

[Nikko G]

Hello guys, recently did a fresh install of Windows 10 and have been able to find 2 out of three of my drives in disk management. I was able to enable both my 500GB SSD and 1TB HDD but it disk management cannot find my 2TB Hybrid drive. I am able to find it listed in my BIOS.

If it matters,
Ryzen 7 3800X
MSI MPG x570 Gaming Pro Carbon

Check your two drives for storage pool and delete it.

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Go to System -> Storage.
3. On the right, click on the link Manage Storage Spaces.
4. In the next dialog, click on the button Change settings and confirm the UAC prompt.
5. If you have a Storage Space in the Storage Pool, delete it.

I do not see a "Manage Storage Spaces" anywhere?
The only options showing up are -
View storage usage on other drives
Change where new content is saved
Optimize drives
Configure Storage Sense or run it now
EDIT. Nvm haha found the Manage Storage

Where is the third drive plugged in?

click on computer management under windows tab, go to storage, disk management, and initialize the drive if you see it listed there.

So I hit "Create a new pool and storage space" and the unformatted drive came up. I checked disk management and set it active. Thank you.

It shouldn't be this hard to get a hd up and running. Win10 has become so convoluted that plug n play is almost dead. Glad you got it up and running.👍
