New laptop's RAW disks

[Cyanea]

Hello, I recently bought an ASUS X455D laptop which comes with a one TB internal HDD. The problem is, I only see Local Disk 🙂C) that has 194 GB as seen here http://imgur.com/a/ltnxx (the other one is my external HDD). I checked Disk Management and found two RAW disks http://imgur.com/a/DJ8X8

Are they parts of the internal 1 TB HDD? If yes, what can I do to make them accessible? Thank you in advance, have a good day!

That's one of the oddest things I've seen in a while. Yes, they are part of the internal disk. Were it my machine, I'd delete both partitions, create a single new one in the empty space, and create disk D on it. It's also possible to expand your C disk into this space.

I would contact ASUS and ask them what the heck is up with this. Where did you get it - at retail? Used?

Hello Wyoming, thank you for replying. I managed to make them accessible a while ago by giving the disks letters and formatting them. But yes, they are separated into two disks instead of one, I think I'll let it be since it doesn't affect me that much. I bought it at retail and the laptop isn't used.
