  1. 3 storage devices, only seeing two


    I have three storage devices. One 1TB m.2, one 500GB SSD, and one 1TB HDD. I just got the SSD and plugged it in. I noticed when I went to disk management it wasn’t popping up so I tried all different power sources thinking maybe it’s a dead port. I pulled out the HDD and plugged the SSD into where that use to be and then could only see the m.2 and the SSD and not the HDD in disk management..am I missing something? If I’m in the wrong community for this type of question, SPARE me and point me to the correct one thanks in advance!
