My hard drive is not being recognized on my file explorer.
im using a toshiba windows 10 laptop.
when i go into disk management, it shows disk 1 unknown & unallicated.
when i right click on it and try to select new simple volume, does not give me the option to select it.
im assuming the it has bad sectors.
how can clear it and start it all new. aint anything in there that i want to recover.

some guidance would be very appreciated.
thank you.
