The 4TB NVMe SSD is displaying a 2TB capacity.
Hey, I saw the instructions but didn’t grasp them. If you’re not in the right place, let’s switch channels. System: Windows 10 Pro. Hardware: CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600, GPU AMD 6800XT, Motherboard B450, RAM Viper Patriot (DDR4, dual channel, 16GB, 3733MHz) and Vengeance LPX (DDR4, 3200MHz, 16GB). Storage includes a 4TB Crucial P3 Plus SSD, an 870 EVO Samsung SSD (2TB), and a TX750M 750W power supply from Corsair. Recently I moved my old PC into a new case, upgraded the GPU and storage, but the C: drive shows only 2TB even though the PC claims 4TB. In Task Manager it lists 4TB formatted as 2TB. I thought maybe formatting was wrong or something similar happened. I don’t have any files on the machine yet, so if reinstalling Windows is the quickest fix, I’d consider that. Thanks if anyone can help—I’ve been trying to get it working for about five hours with other issues and just want it to run smoothly.

Tea that resembles its original setup isn't from GPT. You might want to reinstall the OS if you haven't configured it yet. Ensure you're booting in UEFI mode. If not, use the mbrtogpt tool in Windows to convert it to GPT. Then, consider using a tool like gparted on a Linux live disk to relocate the partition and expand the C partition.
I believe I'll just reinstall—it should be quick and the simplest option. Could you clarify what EFI mode refers to?
I turned off CSPM but can’t locate UEFI in my BIOS settings. The manual mentioned a specific path, but that choice isn’t available. Does the Secure Boot feature serve the same purpose?
