How to reformat an SSD and go from dynamic to basic

If windows Disk manager wil not let you delete that partion, us the command line Diskpart cmd. will post the sets - Have to find them LOL.

Back (from one of my earlier replys today)

What I use. Windows cmd line diskpart cmd to remove hard to remove partitions
Basically (read this first): http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us [...] s.10).aspx

.. You open a dos command window WITH run with admistrator privlage.
....... Type command in start, run box. You will se a pop up and select run as admisinstrator.

then type the following cmds.
Diskpart Starts program (Note: Do Not type the - (ie diskpart> List disk then enter key)
- LIST DISK (shows all disk, look for Disk Number of the your SSD Drive you want to work on)
- SELECT DISK X (For X insert SSD that you want ot work on drive Number)
- DETAIL DISK (Detailed information of the disk that has the focus This will show if you have selected the correct drive.)
- CLEAN (One of the most practical and most dangerous: it removes at once all the partitions on the selected disk.)
Note for the next two do NOT use the size=n)
- CREATE PARTITION EXTENDED (Creates an extended partition on the current drive. After the partition has been created, the focus automatically shifts to the new partition.)
- CREATE PARTITION LOGICAL (Creates a logical drive in the extended partition. After the partition has been created, the focus automatically shifts to the new logical drive.)
- EXIT (Quits DISKPART and returns to the command prompt classic)

You should now be able to format the drive (WITH the correct space) using windows Disk manager.
