New M.2 SSD divided itself into 3 disks (and cloned my C:)

[Professur]

Hi,

I bought the new MX500 3D NAND SATA M.2 on Amazon and installed that this morning...

https://www.amazon.ca/Crucial-MX500-500GB-2280SS-Internal/dp/B077SQ8J1V/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1548165695&sr=1-4&keywords=mx500+m.2

I was going to use this SATA M.2 for games only, and I install it in the secondary M.2 slot on my B360 Mobo (doesn't support boot).

But then this M.2 just divided itself into E: (60 GB), F: (100 GB) and G: (305 GB)... I looked into E: (60 GB) and a clone of my OS is there and occupied 33 GB...

I just lost.

Can you show screenshot from Disk Management?

hey, thanks for the reply. Turned out there is some kind of Chinese hdd cloning program in my new SATA M.2... I don't know if it is first handed or second handed (open box SSD)...

I formatted the M.2 and deleted all partitions.

I think I'm just unlucky and got myself an open box item.
