I have 2 storage drives, a samsung 860 evo SSD and a Seagate 3.5" HDD. Both are 1TB in size, but when looking in my File Explorer, it says I only have 1 TB of storage. Also, I checked properties on the Local Disk, and both of the mentioned drives are listed, but again, I only have 1 TB of storage. Thanks in advance for the help!

The drives will show up as separate drives NOT one big drive. Yous should see two drives formatted an showing 931GB (Long story. Manufactures see 1000MB as 1GB and a PC see 1024MB as 1GB so that is why they say formatted capacity will vary.

If you have only 1 drive, go into disk management and make sure they both have drive letters. If not right click on it and change drive letter and then click add.
