New PowerSpec G755 + added Samsung 990EVOplus

Options

I just brought home a new G755 and, wanting a little more disk space, purchased a 2TB 990 EVOplus for it. The G755 is up and running just fine. I installed the new SSD drive. However, hoping not to have to remove the graphics card, installed it in the 3rd NVM slot instead of the second. Now the BIOS sees it just fine in slot 3 but Windows doesn't seem to know about it.

Is there anything I can do short of removing the graphics card and moving the drive to slot 2?

    You need to format it. Right click on start or hit Alt+X. Click Disk Management. You'll be prompted to initialize the drive. From there right click on the unallocated drive space on the bottom portion and do New Simple Volume. Follow the wizard.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
