epiccoder1 · Jan 12, 2018

hi! i recently installed a toshiba 500gb hdd to my system! i formatted the drive from diskpart, then went into disk manager and it still didnt work. it shows up as disk 0 and wont let me do anything to it except view properties. i tried assigning a drive letter to it from diskpart.

It is simply Unallocated.
Right click on that Disk 0, and select New Simple Volume.

it does not have that option and everything else in greyed out

What options does it give when you right click?
Screenshot, if you can.
