It is required by law

I love that they're doing shorts. Probably a good way to address some of the questions people have

it's worth noting it might also pop-up a message to "initialize disk" and a choice of MBR or GPT. Unless you have a special legacy system, you'll definitely want to select GPT. From there, follow the video.

I remember freaking out during my first build lol this would have been so useful 😅

what if my drive is not there

Great short!! better than 10+ mins video for a simple fix (setup) :3

I work on a call center. I get at least 3 calls about this a day. Might have to start sending this video

Jay and Linus are the reason im into pc building today! Love this channel

TY! THIS! is what shorts are all about. So sick of creators posting a regular video and then peppering my home page with two or three shorts using content from that video. Great job Jay.

What if the drive doesn't show up in disk management? I have several drives that power on and spin but disk management won't see them no matter if I use different SATA cables

Just built my 1st pc and your videos helped me through it all. So THANK YOU so much

jayz's short clips are so pleasant

I have been stressing about this all day. You are like my digital Qui Gon Jin.

inb4 Jay is Da Best! For those who have encountered the same problem as me. I thought my m2 was broken, bought a new one but it wasn't recognized by the diskmanager BUT it was shown in my BIOS. Fix was go to Device Manager and look for your Storage Controller. IF you find AMD RAID Bottom there, deinstall this driver so the Windows driver reinstalls. This fixed my problem! Hope this helps other unlucky people the many hours it took me to figure that treasure out! :)

That happened when I smacked a 2tb large Crucial P3 onto my Motherboard. The Partition Manager was my first Option to check if the Nvme has been recognized in general when I saw the Black "unallocated" bar.

I just installed a new nvme yesterday for more game storage. Apparently, I had to update the bios. Turns out that old bios with newer ssd cause being stuck at the splash screen.

I would recommend checking and updating your BIOS anytime you install something or make changes in your PC.

Boot into safe mode and restart your computer

I remember when I learned about this and found out how to partition a drive 20 years ago. I felt so smart around my friends lol

I've been doing this wrong the whole time, I named my storage drive 'Thicc Boi' and not 'JAY IS DA BEST' lol

If you haven't initialized the disk either you'll be notified, if you do so choose "GPT" instead of MBR

Jay doing God's work. Now I don't have to do this for my brother in 3 weeks. Lol

@@bmomosaik Did you wake up one day and just assume that the world hates you? Relax ever so slightly, I know a lot about tech. But sometimes we forget things or find things useful. I see in your recent comments you have an awful amount of hate against Jay. Maybe you should disassociate from the internet for a while. All the best on your therapy. 👌🏻

This actually just helped me figure out something I didn't know how to figure out on my computer for over a year so thank you Jay!

Named mine Jay is Da Best, like a man naming their newborn child after a kind stranger saves their lives one afternoon on a lonely road.

You could also right click on the start button and then click "Disk Management"

Finally a actually good person that gives tricks and not basics information! (I didn’t know this because they appear but this is great just in case)

A short with actual good information, these are rare....

Good short so many people gonna need those advice

I named my new drive Jay is da best, then reboot. My pc exploded!!! Dang U Jay! U owe me TwoCents, Jay, JayTwoCents... hahahaha

Quick, straight to the point, excellent quality! Thumbs up, awesome job!

Quick, simple, and to the point! Thanks man!

I Bet over 100 people will actually name their drive Jay is da best 😂😂

for me it doesn't show the new SSD I installed and can't use the wizard thing since it's not there to be selected

we need to have jay makes shorts out of all the usefull computer tips

Great tech tips!

Thanks Jay. I always can find answers to my questions on your channel.

Super helpful and quick, thank you!

I don't know when Jay decided to do these shorts, but I kind of like it 😅

I remember googling this problem several years back. It wasn't found that quickly

really appreciate this man, short straight to the point which is perfect for someone who understands enough about computers but not enough to be sure 😂

heh, up and running in no time. So I went through the experience recently buying a second SSD drive. My first one had a split partitioning, 500GB for the boot drive and the rest for applications. After getting the second drive (which was easy to set up doing exactly this), I wanted to restructure the partitions on the first drive, 50/50 split. After moving some apps from the old drive to the new one, I shrunk the old drive's Apps partition down to 1TB. Went to expand the boot partition up to 1TB, except there wasn't that option. Because the unallocated space on the drive had the Apps partition between it and the boot partition. In order to expand a partition, the unallocated space has to be connected to it. There's a few third party programs that allow you to move partitions around in the physical space of the drive. So if you need to do this, they are easy to find with a simple google search, and you can get it done with free options. Don't pay for it. Definitely something that ought to be included with Disk Management already.

i installed 3 m.2 drives in my new comp. The 3rd one never showed up. I said f it and went on with life. Then I saw this short and within a minute I have my 2rd drive. Thanks jay z

Love this kind of info quick hit!

Good info. Had to look at a friends new build and his disk wasn't showing in Windows, but it did show on UEFI and disk management. This was my first time running into the Storage Pool problem. Just had to delete the pool and everything worked and showed as normal after that.

Dude! great short on a specific topic that most people don't know. Thank you!

Thumbs up for the Rockman wallpaper! ❤

Thank you Jay! I just built my first pc and I have 4 storage locations but only 1 would show. This is exactly what I needed! 🙌🏾

Thanks! Never had gone through this so was confused! This helped a ton.

Thank you!

Thank you for the instructions.

You can also select multiple drives and put them in the Dynamic Striped layout so you can have multiple smaller drives acting as one big unified drive. This acts more like a basic RAID 0 setup so be aware that if data loss occurs on one drive, you might not be able to recover the data from all of them.

I just used this to fix an old external hard drive I've had for a few years. Works as good as new now! Thank you for the video, glad this appeared in my recommended feed!

Just installed an NVME drive, good to see the algorithm trying to be helpful but being a tad bit late at it.

This video is good if the pins on whatever is making that connection to the Hard Drive is in intact, I had once a laptop that needed something very particular in order to make that connection but it was missing some pins, essentially I had to replace that item and suddenly everything was back to normal. So yeah, this video isn't the only troubleshooting idea that should come up in your head, check your hardware as well and make sure everything is intact

I have an issue where I had drives already installed, but I installed an NVME drive and now the drives that were previously installed are missing. Been Googling and trying solutions for hours now. Gotta love Windows!

I wish the data loss I just had was because something simple like that. Anyway, once again, great video and keep them coming! 2 Billion views, here we go!

Windows update and gptr are the main culprits. Go back to MBR and it'll stop it.! Love how Windows condemns a drive when it's own updates is the real culprit...

Super quick and helpful!

Literally looked it up everywhere and people had 20 minute long vids lol, this Short was quick and easy

Hello Jay and the guys as always a wealth of info on how to do things the right way thankyou for everything you do/create and post keep up the great work

I just did this last night but with an external hard drive. Thank you! Got 4TB external storage to finally use!

Awesome shorts Jay more please 😅

I saved this and have used it a few times already, super helpful thank you Jay.

Thanks Jay that really helped out a lot You're awesome keep up the good and formal videos

Thanks, Jay. That's actually very helpful to know for future reference.

Thank you Jay!

Wonderful. Thank you

Do more of these Jay, it's all useful stuff for new builds and setting up windows

Remember when you had to put the floppy disk in the type in fdisk and then do the partitioning and then you could format? I remember when I bought my 1st computer in today's funds it would be right around 18,500.00. The specs were insanely good for the times. It was a 486 dx266 no math co-processor.

I'm new to tinkering and I almost returned the SSD 😂. MUCH APPRECIATED!!

I did it with a Samsung 980 in a Sabeant enclosure connected to a USB-C 10 gbs port and 6 out of 6 times it got hot and the laptop went BLUE SCREEN belly-up. Bought a new Samsung 980 and for 2 times it did the same thing connected the Enclosure to a 5 gbs usb 2.0 port and it stayed cool as a cucumber. Now I have a separate m.2 1TB in the Sabeant on the 10 gbs port. No problems running DAVINCI clips from it at 10gbs. Actually I ran 2 years with Premiere and Davinci off a 72000 rpm HDD that came in the machine no slow downs.

thank you once againg jay for a quick late night fix u the man

Thanks a lot for this, Jay. Ur the best!

I am so grateful for this ❤

my hdd that i use for bulk storage(because its cheaper that way) i had to make it part of a storage pool as windows calls it to make it work which kinda makes it easier later because when i add a new drive i just add that one and it is still under the d drive from what i can tell

Just built a new computer yesterday and was having this issue with my second drive. Thank you so much!

Just done it thanks Jay you really are DA BEST

In the first screen of the window that lets you assign the letter, you can change how much space will that drive will use, it is in mb and to get gb, put in a multiple of 1024 in that area

That's a nice simple short for the scrubs well done

I love JayzTwoShorts!

This helped alot, thank you!

Actually never knew this, just worked for my hard drive thanks

and if that don't work, take it out and blow on the connector pins like you do with your old NES/SNES cartridges. :P

Good work Jay, and thanks❤

It also can ask if you want GPT or MBR. If it's not an old system with a drive that is less than 2 TB (MBR partition cannot exceed 2 TB), and you don't need backward capability (like Windows XP), choose GPT.

Thanks a lot‼️

Thanks Jay!

Thanks Jay. ❤

This is waaaaaaaaaaaay more useful than people realize.

Yes more clips like this this is the way in my mando voice***

Thank you so much❤ My bios detected the m2 disk before and now it works.

Allocation size does matter especialy on NVME , format a drive with 4kb then one drive with 64k , the 64 one will be way faster overall altho it will waste a little space on files under 64k

I have had a 1TB M2 sitting in my computer for months now not knowing why it wasnt showing up and honestly just let it go. This video literally told me why it wasnt doing anything so BIG THANKYOU! ❤

I still do the pea method even on newer Ryzen CPUs, but on newer Intel ones, I put a line of thermal paste on the middle along the entire length of the CPU. Never had a problem.

I had to initiate the ssd before I could make a new simple volume. Great quick guide nontheless!

What do you do if your dive does not show up in the disc management window. I see my drive with the os on it and that is it. No unalocated ssd. Just the one with my os. I can see both ssd’s in my bios, but I can’t see them in the disc management window. Why is this happening? I moved the ssd to a different port and it still did not recognize it. (It is a Samsung 980 pro name ssd). Please help me if you can. I’ve been racking my brain for months now.
