Hi, i have a 250gb ssd and a 2tb m.2, both drives work fine but my m.2 only has 1.81 tb in it, any idea where the other 190gb is?
 
Solution
2TB == 1.81TB.
There is no missing space, just a difference in reporting units.
It is not your SSD, ALL storage devices are like that.
2TB on the box or label = 1.81TB actual space.

There was even a lawsuit about this years ago.
