HDD installed but not displayed?
I just installed the HDD from my old PC (the PC is no longer functional) into my new one because I need some files.
I plugged it in and it should work, but it's not showing up.
Do I have to activate something or is it because the old HDD also has Windows and I therefore have two Windows versions on my PC?
LG thanks
For "i documents", no disks (HDD, SSD, …) are displayed.
And who knows what you mean, "where all data carriers are visible."
If you can't name things correctly, you've looked up 99% in the wrong place. But who knows?
The disk must first be assigned a partition in the Windows disk management.
It does not appear
Then it's not connected properly.
Wrong. The partition must be assigned a drive letter.
No, without partition, no drive letter can be assigned. Also the assignment of a partition name does not have to do with creating the actual partition. The main thing is to say something. . .
Unfortunately, here is the speech that a few old files are needed. The FS can of course kill the old partitions and create a new one. But what about his data?
If BIOS/UEFI as well as the OS recognize the plate cleanly, it only has to assign a drive letter (which apparently did not happen automatically). Whether access to the files is then possible, this is on another sheet.
