Windows 10: SSD Drive Not recognized.

HP Notebook 15-ef0025wm. My SSD with Windows 10 crashed on my PC. I've replaced it by a new one, but Bios uefi doesn't see it. I got the bios firmware updated with the help of a USB. The SSD driver file is however an .exe file, by hp and could only be launching on an already installed Windows. So how can I update my make my notebook recognized the SSD by using a command prompt X:sources> on a bootable USB flash drive? When I boot my Win PE I boot from the USB and the command prompt only brings out my X:/ drive, nothing else. Please keep in mind all options on Win PE recovery fails except

Windows 10 not recognizing SSD in external drive docking station

I just purchased a WD Blue SSD to replace an existing HDD as the primary drive in my laptop. I have a Nekteck external drive docking station that I am trying to use to clone the primary drive. When I insert the SSD it is not recognized as a drive. If
I view Devices I can see the dock and I can see that it recognizes the WD drive is in the doc and says the device is working properly. However I cannot get the OS to recognize it as a drive in file manager. It does recognize one of my other HDD drives just
fine. I appreciate any suggestions.

 

SSD Drive not being recognized

Hello. I recently reinstalled Windows after my laptop completely stopped working correctly (got the Automatic Repair loop and accidentally messed up Windows). Anyways, I got my laptop fixed and reinstalled Windows, but the only drive being recognized is
my HDD (as the C: drive) and isn't recognizing my SSD drive (should be the D: drive).

I looked up stuff online and most people said to check out Disk Management and my SSD drive is being recognized on there. It's being recognized as Disk 0 while my HDD is being recognized as Disk. In the bottom panel, tt says my SSD (Disk 0) has 1863 GB of
unallocated memory and it says it's online. However, the only things showing up in the upper panel are the C: and System Reserve.

I'm not quite sure how to get my laptop to recognize the D: drive (SSD). Also, many people online said to convert (?) the SSD to NTFS, but when I right-click the SSD in the bottom panel the only options I get is "Convert to Dynamic Disk" or "Convert to GPT
Disk."

How would I go about getting my laptop to recognize the SSD? I mean, I could live with 118 GB on my HDD, but it kinda hurts me a little bit inside. I love games too much.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, if you need any more info, please let me know! Thanks
