I built my own computer with a 500GB SSD and 4TB HDD. Unfortunately I made the mistake of having both drives connected when installing Windows 10 for the first time, and now there's a System Reserved partition on my HDD. The problem with that is that it's only recognizing 2TB of the 4TB drive. I can assign a drive letter to only half the space, the other half is not accessible. In order to fix that, I need to format the drive as GPT, but that option is greyed out since there's a System Reserved Partition on the drive.


How do I move the System Reserved Partition to the SSD in order to format my HDD as GPT and access all 4TB? I don't need to keep any files on either drive, so I'm happy to completely wipe the computer if necessary (possible?).


Thanks.
