Hi so I recently had to wipe my 3TB HDD due to some corrupted registry files and that was the only way that I could have done things. However, after reinstalling windows I noticed that my HDD was only displaying as 2TB instead of how it was previously working with the entire 3TB. I tried formatting the drive, deleting all partitions and volumes and converting it from MBR to GPT and then reinstalling windows yet it still doesn't work. The windows that I am using is Windows 10 Home. I repeated formatting and removing all volumes and partitions and converting to GPT multiple times yet it still keeps going back to only using 2TB after I am done reinstalling Windows. When I go to disk management, three boxes come up next to DISK 0, underneath which it says Basic, 2794.52 GB, Online and there are three boxes to the right of it. The first one says System Reserved 500 MB NTFS Healthy, the second says (C
2047.51 GB NTFS Healthy, and the third one has a black bar over it and just says 746.52 GB Unallocated. When i right click on it the only options to appear come up are properties and help, and no other useful options. I have checked many videos online, most which suggest using intel rapid storage technology yet that hasn't worked either. Any solutions? Thank you
