Honestly the easier and most straightforward explanation ever given about storage, GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE!! Oh and obviously PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS!!!
We appreciate the awesome feedback!
Totally agree
protect him from who?
Get this man a raise this is the best guide I’ve ever watched
Thank you for your feedback! 😀
@@seagate did you increase his income
@@evildude2135 i am also awaiting for a response
@@FundamentalPT I don't think they did so I spat on them by buying a Samsung ssd 2 days ago
@@evildude2135 I Salute you
2:33 THANK YOU! Been trying to figure out how to use my new ssd for storage, but every vid I could find assumes you're gonna want to use it for boot and only talks about how to install win 10 on it and format the old drive. You my good sir saved me lots of time and frustration!
You deserve a raise. I was about give up and take apart my whole pc, again. Thanks 🙏!
Exactly 🔥
idiot..
Lol why.
Adam was on DMT
en ce moment sur amazon ya la SSD 1To M2 Gén. 3 a seulement 87,99 € amzn.to/3663nyx je pense que c'est un tres bon plan.
This video saved me from so much frustration! I'm honestly so so SO happy for this video, thank you so much! Easy, simple, to the point, no faffing around. I agree with everyone else: give this man a raise!!
its been a while since i upgraded my storage, 2 mins of this video and my new m.2 was in and formatted. brilliant video, simple to follow and straight to the point with no waffle. thanks!
What 'chu got against Waffles? :(
For some reason my new nvme isn’t showing up on the disk manager
This video touches up on A LOT of questions that I was trying to figure out even BEFORE buying my new m.2. Amazing video and excellent application of a presentation by the gentleman in the video!
Yea totally agree 💯
Oh my god. Tried searching for this info on the web and so many sties trying to sell you their sketchy software. Thank you so much for this vid.
Nicely done video, I am increasing my storage and naively thought I could just drop in an M.2 and locate it under my storage tab 🙈 was about to move on from this video until he said about replacing or expanding storage. Good man for covering it all 👍🏻
Probably one of the most useful videos on TH-cam. Very simple, but also explains every options which might be different for everyone from hunded of users. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for making a comprehensive, easy to follow and well-explained guide for this. Straightforward guides without bloated or ad-related content are so difficult to find anymore. Subscribed.
you literally touched every single doubt I have even before I could start typing it on google, you are amazing and definitely deserve a raise!
I know I'm three years late, but thank GOD for this guide. If it weren't for this guide I would have wasted close to 100 dollars on a useless peice of plastic. The last part about disk management saved me an unfathomable ammount of stress. THANK YOU SEAGATE.
Great vid. Helped me through my install
Thank you so much. I’m dumb with computers and I installed an NVMe drive onto my MSI Laptop. Not one of the many videos I watched on how to do it told me I had to format the drive. Thank you so much for this video.
fossthehoss samee here brother
Did you have to use a usb to ssd external device or how did you do it, I’m struggling with mine right now
@@Alex_A-oi4bl bro I’m so sorry. It’s been so long since I did that and I don’t even remember.
This was seriously the easiest/helpful guide I have EVER watched. Couldn't figure out what was wrong and why it wasn't showing up. Thanks!
Very clean and efficient video. No filler to stretch out to a longer video. Much appreciated.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you enjoyed the video! 😎
This fellow has the cadence of a man held at gunpoint while on Mushrooms.
It's funny, because he's fat
@@ericross441 thats so rude (in nowadays its is) but thats even better
Nervous teleprompter rizz
This made me LOL!! 😂
3 years later still helping people Thank you!
For anyone else curious seagate disc wizard only works for free if you have a seagate ssd. Plenty of other free software out there though to switch files from one to another. Great vid, thank you!
Just bought my Samsung 970 evo plus SSD, did what this professional said, and everything WORKS EVEN BETTER! thank you great sir!
We're glad to hear that you find this video helpful. 😊
Clear and concise - This world needs more of it! Thank you :D
We are happy you enjoyed our video, Jiva!
Very informative and concise video! I just finished building my new PC and was wondering how to allocate my second m.2 ssd! Thanks for the great info!
Thank you!
*THANK YOU* Finally, someone made a short, concise, and informative vid on how to install and format an M.2 drive. I don't go into my computer like I did 35 years ago.
This guy doesn't look much but he made the video so easy to use, Respect...
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve never done any sort of work on electronics, but with the help of this video and a few others I successfully installed an extra TB of ssd onto my gaming laptop! Thank you so much!!!
Praise this man
Holy moly how can be a Tutorial so good !
Exlained every scenario in the best way possible..
If I could I would give 1000 thumbs up !
Wonderful man and the only video which tells users about Bios settings(which is the most important part while installing m.2)
Thank you. You saved me. I thought I had a defective drive. I didn't know I had to use Disk Management for Windows to recognize it. Thanks again my man.
Hi,
Thank you for sharing this info with us, we are happy to hear that.

I accidentally connected the SSD at 30.1 degree angle
🥺🥺🥺😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭
My whole computer blasted
Very helpful and straightforward, even 3 years later
A good point for anyone that doesn't have a static bracelet:
Turn off your power then turn off the power supply but LEAVE it plugged in. Touch something grounded to be sure then your pc staying plugged in acts as a ground.
I've built PCs on my lap and never had a problem.
good info. i always make sure i have one hand on the metal case, which should be grounded if it's still plugged in
This was ridiculously well made. Simple and easy.
Thank you! 😊
Thank you ! Just purchased a second NVMe as a BU. This helped me a lot. Thank you taking the time to share this.
Hi Calvin, we're glad to hear you found this helpful!
You dont know how happy this Video made me
When installing Windows, I'd recommend having ONLY one drive connected, the one you want as your boot & OS drive. I've had Windows decide to create a system partition on another drive that I used for general files, so now I disconnect everything but the drive I want to be C:, then reconnect the rest after Windows is installed.
Nice mate this is what I'm about to comment. 👍👍👍
Microsoft said you can install both m.2 ssd and when you load windows 10 it will adk you which one do you want as C drive
That’s good advice. It can get a little confusing for sure!
I have a question i have an hdd for games and a sata drive with windows on it installed today i installed a new m.2 nvme ssd and my system powers on but the screen is black it doesn't show the boot up or anything do you think i should try copying all the data from the sata to hdd remove the sata then install the m.2 ssd?
@@MMTT7sALd Check in your bios for the boot drive, it should be set to your current SATA drive. This should allow you to boot normally. Then you can use a program such as Macrium Reflect to clone your SATA Windows drive to your new M2 drive. Go back into your bios and change the boot drive to the M2. I usually have a fresh install of Windows whenever I change my boot drive, then copy across any additional files I need from the old boot drive.
I only needed these two (1:25 Attaching the SSD) and (2:12 Adding SSD in Drive Management), though overall the video is just as helpful and easy to understand. Cheers!
Glad you found this helpful!
UR INVITED TO MY WEDDING. thx for the help
can I come too
easy to understand took me 4 other videos to get to this one and this one worked perfectly, Thanks!!
Thank you very much, I had my new SSD formatted and configured by time 2.:27
2:12 This is exactly what i needed to know. I bought a WD Blue 500GB ssd and couldn't find a video to help. #Kudos to this man
WD?!? That hurts.
@@seagate 💀😂
Don't worry mate even though he bought a wd, this video will make Seagate a bit more popular :)
And Seagate should work on their stuff to compete with others side by side
Man I was looking all over Google for this. Thank you!
I just bought a new M.2 NVME SSD, it's hard to keep enough space because these games nowadays are huge. I already have 2 ssds and 2 hdds, it's hard out here for a pimp like me.
Now that I have my second 2 TB firecuda 530 I think I'll need these softwares!
this is the best guide I've ever watched in my life.
Wow, thanks so much for this feedback!
I was struggling so much but this was so helpful
We're glad to hear that! 💚
First time watcher. Congrats on the video. The presenter did an excellent job and he's very likable and knowledgeable.
Ok so i bought a new ssd nvme, and I thought it was just a plug in and use, so I was freaking out when I couldn't find my "new storage unit". After following the steps I understood that a "New simple volume" had to be added and I thought I would leave it at that because I did not want to format the games and the system in my main drive to install in the new one, and BAM! you go in and not only mention Seagate DiscWizard as you explain how to use it. I cannot be thankful enough!
We are glad you were able to successfully upgrade your storage using Seagate!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I WAS PANICKING BECAUSE I THOUGHT I BROKE MY NVME :)
Thank you so much for the video! Helped me installing and extending my memory for my PC. Much Appreciated!!

THANK YOU!!!! Been struggling for hours trying to add my new 1tb SSD!! appreciate this so much!
Hey Dan, we are glad to hear this was helpful!
Incredibly helpful!! Thank you so much for the super easy to follow tutorial and the free cloning software. Why cant everybody give instruction like you??
We are glad to hear this was helpful.
In the new simple volume part, I`m interested about the settings, that`s why I came here.
Thanks for the video give this man a raise
Love how he has an esds strap laying on the table that's not grounded and he's handling the drive like it doesn't matter. It's like he flaunting the fact he doesn't need to be grounded whatsoever. Then a little later in the video he says you need to use some type of grounding strap or method before handling it.
One of the most useful videos on TH-cam just installed a SSD M2 and it was not showing up. Until i went to disk management like you show on the video thanks a lot
Glad we were able to help!
This man deserves a medal
Great tutorial but in the bios my storage configuration is greyed out
Man this is a beautiful guide, thank you so much for this!!!!
Omg, this guy SAVEd my life litterally, i was litterally choking on my motherboard and this guy helped me with m.2 port and that solved everything, I gagged the second it was installed and woke me up! The click litterally made me aware after hours of being unconcious and getting permanent brain damage, so then I could call 112 (Only swedish people get this)! Now I can go back to choke my gpu, pls give guide on that later ;)
We're glad to hear that you found it helpful! 🙂
Great video! My new SSD works fine now :)
Thank you so much, your video has resolved a major headache, very good work.
OMG THANK YOU I WAS FREAKING OUT ON MY NEW NVME, WONDERING WHY ITS NO SHOWING UP THANK YOU!
We're glad you found it helpful. 🙂
Thanks for the video! 2:20 for those who already have an SSD and want to install another for games or photos...
just fitted a new m.2 to a old pc. thanks for the install tips!
Maka is the best!
Can you use the software isn't a Seagate ssd?
thanks for the video! literally took me 5 min to install and my GPU got a good cleaning since it was out anyways :)
Great tutorial! Trying to migrate everything over from my old 1TB Samsung Sata SSD to my new Seagate 2TB NVMe
I can’t see my ssd in the bios 😓
THANK YOU SO MUCH, this video helped me so muchhhhhhh i can't express my gratitude to you guys
Incredibly helpful and straightforward, great guide! Thank you
Thank you for the feedback! We are glad it was helpful! 💚
I have an existing windows installed on an hdd. The nvme doesn't show up under disk management. it does show in bios. Wd installation instructions say to disconnect the old hdd and install widows on the nvme. I put this computer together few months ago with just an hdd and am just trying to get the computer to recognize and boot off the newly installed nmve without losing files. Gigabyte b450 mobo wd black sn750. Will I lose files if i disconnect the hdd install windows on nvme and then reconnect hdd after the windows install on nvme
Muchas gracias!! Excelente tutorial claro y sin rellenos.
Bravaa belisimaa
Simple and complete explanation for each purpose, not only hardware installation, very good video thank you !
Thank you so much!
Does the DiscWizard only work for SeaGate SSD's? I've gotten a Pny NVMEe, will it work for that as well?
Yes
Best explanation ever thank you so much!
Thank you for this video very helpful
Thanks for teaching us
Hey Pedro! No problem, thanks for watching!
I installed an M.2 NVMe SSD on my Mainboard but in the Disk Management it wont show off? Whatt should I do?
The problem was that my mainboard needed an Intal Core from the 11th generation to register two m.2 ssd...
hey thank you my guy you help me a lot

Holy Moly what an incredibly great video. Thank you!
Hello there. I have an issue I'm running Windows 10 with an M.2 as boot and 2 HD as storage, I tried to upgrade to Windows 11, but for that I need to turn select "UFEI only" on my bios, however when I do that the M.2 is not visible and the machine can't boot. What could be the issue(s)? Thank you very much.
Is there anyway to fix it after the install process or do I have to put in the old one again?
I have a problem and don’t know how to fix it. I bought two m.2 and installed them together and when I formatted them it said “which disk do you want to format Disk1,Disk2”and I had the option to check them both so I did.I formatted the two m.2 together but I only see enough space for one and the other one can’t be found,how do I fix this?
Hi! Please contact our customer support team on our website: www.seagate.com/contacts/ They will be able to help you directly and answer any specific questions. Thank you.
The seagate disc wizard only works if you have a seagate drive, what other alternatives are there for those of us who do not have a seagate drive?
Seriously, thank you for this video.
Great video guys.
Thanks, super simple to install as a secondary!
incredibly easy to understand guide, thank you for your help
Nice Work Man 👍
