[SOLVED] New SSD SK Hynix S31 (Sata III, 2.5 inch)

[Cj-tech]

Hey guys!

I got an SSD today to use as an external storage with a USB to SATA adapter. However, Windows 10 does not seem to recognize the drive in File Explorer or Disk Management. The SK Hynix drive management tool does recognize the drive though. Also, diskpart recognized it.

I want to use this to store backups of files on. How do I get it recognized?

Thanks, I should have played around with diskpart some more.
