Hello,
I just bought my PC and had it built by an expert. When I got home I realized that my PC only had 240GB of space while I have a 480GB SSD. I tried all the techniques with Windows Disk Management when I try to create a simple volume with the remaining unallocated space, a message appears: "the size of the extent is less than the minimum"
Can you help me please

Configuration: Android / Chrome 78.0.3904.90

    Hello,

    Attention, you need to be precise in the text... Would you say that you have a 480GB SSD installed in your PC... And in Windows you only see 240..?? Is that right..??

    -- But be clear about what you would have preferred... A single 480GB drive in total, I suppose...??

    But in fact you don’t know what is in the rest..?? It could be an OEM partition or a Recovery partition that is invisible... you can’t necessarily touch that without taking precautions...

    -- Furthermore, there may be plans to partition the disk and create a D: drive, for example, for the “Datas,” which would be a wise precaution in case of a crash... that would prevent losing everything...
