Hi there,

I have two NVMe drives (2x 1TB, samsung and SK Hynix) and and a 500GB WD SATA HDD. I have installed Mint alongside Win11 (on difefrent NVME SSD's) and both systems boot up fine. However, neither system fully recognizes the HDD. I have even tried taking out the HDD and connecting the HDD to my laptop using an external enclosure, but still no luck.

In Win11, the HDD only shows up under Disk Management as "primary disk."

In Linux, when I type inxi -F command in the terminal, I get the following output (unrelated parts are redacted).

System:
Host: mypcsname Kernel: 6.1.0-1034-oem x86_64 bits: 64
Desktop: Cinnamon 6.0.4 Distro: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
