    Is there any way to get my NVMe boot drive numbered as disk 0 in Windows 10?


    Is there any way to get my NVMe boot drive numbered as disk 0 in Windows 10? I've got four SATA disks that I disconnected during the install process but now they're reconnected Windows has decided my boot NVMe drive is Disk 4 and Task Manager lists the drives in a really strange order and I'd prefer them to be alphabetical.

    :)

    How can I change the disk number of NVME SSD (Boot) to DISK-0 in Disk Management in Windows 11?

    HI,

    I have my OS installed on NVME SSD (physically installed on motherboard) and other drives are connected using SATA cables. But for some reason, the boot drive (NVME SSD) always shows DISK 5 (Last Disk) in disk management.

    So far on the forums, people suggest to switch ports but I have only one NVME SSD port on my motherboard.

    Also, I tried to boot pc just with boot drive and disconnected all other drive. Then it showed my boot drive as DISK 0 but as soon as I connect other drives, it again goes to last.

    What should I do?

    Windows 10 installer don't detect NVMe drive

    I have 2 drives:

    • disk1 (SATA SSD, with Ubuntu 16.04)
      • partition1 (sda1: flag /boot)
      • partition2 (sda2: flag /home, encrypted by LUKS)
    • disk2 (NVMe SSD)

    So, the goal is to install Windows 10 on disk2 and boot it from GRUB (which is on sda1).

    What is the problem ?

    In disk-choose step, disk2 is missing. However Ubuntu 14.04 installer "see" this disk, so I assume that is software issue, rather than my hardware.

    What I tried to solve this problem ?

    • loaded Samsung NVMe drivers from this thread
    • patched Windows image using DISM tool by adding 2 updates. I followed this guide
    • tried to run Windows 10 installed on USB stick to install it

    All of them failed.

    Please help me to solve this issue.

    Is there any way to get my NVMe boot drive numbered as disk 0 in Windows 10?

    switch disk numbers: I want Disk 0 to be Disk 1 and Disk 1 to be Disk 0

    Hi, My computer contained a normal HDD hard drive. I recently upgraded to a SSD. The original HDD is Disk 0 and the new SSD is Disk 1. The windows OS is on Disk 1. I want to dual boot my system with Windows and Ubuntu with both OS being on the SSD. Since
    the SSD is Disk 1 the Ubuntu install goes directly to Disk 0 because Disk 0 is first on the list. How can I switch the two Disks so my SSD drive is Disk 0? Thanks.
