My M.2 drive (C) with my OS is almost full. I installed a second drive (F) in order to move my photos, games and downloads to preserve what I already have. The (F) drive shows in My Computer and also in the BIOS as active. The problem I have is that when I try to transfer my photos and other stuff and I right click to send to (F), it does not show in the drop down menu. Can anyone explain why this is happening and how I can move my photos and games in order to create more room in my M.2 drive. Thanks in advance.

If this is a brand new drive, you will need to format it.
You can check to see if its properly setup by trying to create a test folder. If the drive is working, the folder will be created, if not windows will tell you the drive needs to be formatted.
After formatting it should work properly.

if you are able to create a test folder, then its something with the 'send to' menu. I dont use this feature so somebody else will need to help you.
