    diskpart doesn't show disk

    Hey,

    I am trying to install Win10 on a mac book air.

    However the diskpart does not list the disk even after reformatting the partition as NTFS per suggestion.

    read through this solution but cannot move to step 1 listed in the solution by Ivan as that disk doesn't see that partition it was just able to reformat.

    Regards

    Dell Poweredge SC1430: Win cannot be installed to this disk, drives in LSI SAS 5 connector

    I've deleted the drive that was ntfs previously and it became raw. When I had it converted to NTFS before (when working on cmd prompt, goes like this (to show you that I know what I was doing): DISKPART -> list disk -> sel disk 0 -> list vol -> sel vol 0 -> format fs=ntfs quick), the Windows server 2008 was not allowing me to install as it is stating to "ensure that the disk's controller is enabled...." it's FRUSTRATING *Frown disks wont show up in diskpart windows installation :(

    Disk showing in Disk Management, But not DiskPart

    Hello!

    So, today I was doing a friend a favor, he had an old 1TB hard drive with important photos on it. He said he would appreciate it if I could move the photos to a different hard drive.

    So, I hooked it up to my self-built PC (with a SATA port) and it didn't show up in file explorer.

    So, I checked Disk Management to see if it would show up there, and it did. I later realized why it didn't show up in file explorer (Because it didn't have a drive letter). In Disk Management, I right clicked the primary partition only to find that it wouldn't
    let me assign a drive letter.

    I remembered there was another way to assign drive letters, with DiskPart. So I typed this into Command Prompt:

    diskpart > list volume

    In DiskPart, It showed the drive's EFI system partition (partition 1) but not the (Healthy) Primary Partition (partition 2).

    Also in DiskPart, I could type "list disk" and it would show me the 1TB drive, if I then typed "list partition" it would show me the different partitions, but wouldn't let me assign a drive letter to them.

    In summary, Disk Management showed the partition, but wouldn't assign a drive letter. DiskPart showed the partition 1, but not the primary partition.

    My objective is to show the photos located on the 1TB drive's 2nd partition without erasing it.

    I would be happy to add pictures if necessary.

    Thanks!
