Hi , I have a 2tb WD Black SN850x plugged into a Z270p motherboard but it only shows as 1.97gb in Disk Management ...can anyone help ?...thanks
 
That's right, a 1TB shows as 931.51GB and a 3TB shows as 2794.5GB. Its just to do with Maths

For example - A 500 GB hard drive is approximately 500,000,000,000 bytes (500 x 1,000,000,000). When using the GB binary calculation, (500,000,000,000 / 1,073,741,824) that same 500 GB will show as 465 gigabytes. This is why Windows will show a 500 GB drive as 465 GB
