Solution
if you want to apply change in your storage device and it's not showing on the disk manager try this:

1-Start>Run>Cmd>Diskpart>List disk>Select disk (number of the disk)

and then apply any changes you want

for example if you want to format the storage device write this:
format fs=ntfs quick (or what ever format you want to apply)

This can sometimes be the result of a hard drive failure. Be sure to check in BIOS, or UEFI to see if the drive is detected by the motherboard and shows the correct capacity. Then, if it does go ahead and see what disk management shows (control panel > Admin Tools > Computer Management > Disk Manager)
