The motherboard only sees 512GB or Windows? I wonder if it's just a partition size issue.

I've been waiting for the HD to go and it still hasn't. Seems like it should have by now??? I child-proofed my home... but they're still getting in!

It's spring. My life is weeds.

It's better to replace them when they're on the way out. Otherwise they may fail completely at the worst possible time.
