Couldn't see HDD after SSD reinstallation
I believe that I have this little issue solved but I'd like some advice to make sure there isn't problem lurking.
I've been having a problem with Win 10 getting corrupted. Making a long story less long, I've replaced my SSD with a new one and did a fresh install of Windows.
After the reinstall, I could see the SSD as drive C: in File Explorer but couldn't see my HDD which used to be drive D: prior to the replacement. The USB ports were labeled D:, E:, etc.
To fix this, I went into Disk Management and changed the drive letter of the USB drive D: to drive I:. Then, I labeled the HDD as Drive D:.
This worked but I got a message from Windows (lower right corner) asking what to do when the "removable drive D: was loaded".
The HDD obviously isn't a removable drive but it seems to work as it should.
Have I done the right thing or do I have a problem lurking?
