Hi, I see you're having trouble accessing your second SSD. You've already tried several tools like LinuxReader, DiskPart, and Windows utilities, but the drive remains hidden. It seems the issue might be with how the operating system recognizes the partition. Have you checked if the drive is properly mounted or if there are any permissions issues? Also, consider verifying the physical connection and trying a different USB port. Let me know what you find!

when theres a stubborn os being a pain to remove. i remove the drive, hook it to a usb adapter and reformat it that way you "should" be able to just delete the os folders too if you dont want to format it

I truly didn’t want to disassemble the ol PC, since it’s in an odd spot and moving it would be a hassle. By the end of the day, if there’s no alternative, I guess I’ll have to go through it.

Use a third-party partitioning tool such as Minitool Partition Wizard. Remove the partitions currently managed by Parrot. The simplest approach is to erase the drive and begin anew. It’s straightforward if you detach the drive from your computer and connect it to another functional machine using a USB HDD Adapter. Alternatively, start from a Windows USB installer or another bootable disk. Set your preferred language, then press Shift + F10 to open the Command Prompt. Enter Diskpart and hit Enter. List Disk, choose the disk, type Clean to erase it completely. Afterward, you can set up new partitions and format them for storage, or in the Windows installer just select Next to proceed with installation.
