I've just reformatted two HDDs in Windows 10 using the Disk Management format option.

Now neither of them show up in the list of drives do I can't create new partitions, etc.

Oddly enough, they show up in the Samsung Disk Magician software.

Any suggestions on how to get Windows to recognise the drives?

Fixed.

I loaded HIRENS BootCD_PE X64 Windows 10 V1.0.2 and it could see the drives. So I did a quick format with it and all came good in File Explorer and Diesk Management.

Odd.

Now to install them in a "new" PC to install a dual boot Win 10/Ubuntu 22 system.
