    If from Windows setup,
    1. Shift + F10
    2. Type "diskpart"
    3. Type "list disk"
    Before selecting a disc, chose where disc do you want to install Windows
    Ex: 4. Type "select disk 0"
    5. Type "clean" for format the disk
    6. Type "convert gpt to mbr" or "convert mbr to gpt"
    Sorry for my bad English.

    Thank you! I have two NVMe M.2 for boot and applications (1TB Sabrent Rocket 4.0, 250GB Samsung Evo 960), and multiple backup/storage HDDs (8TB external Samsung, 4TB internal samsung, and two 3TB internal Samsungs). I just wanted to convert one of the 3TB storage HDDs and it wouldn't go over 2TB. All the guides were trying to convert using command prompt and fairly complicated. My disk was already blank so I didn't care about any of that. Your method worked in about 10 seconds.

    There is a way to convert MBR to GPT without deleting the volume or on an existing disk with data on. I did it sometime back, what if you want to convert system drive to GPT for UEFI and Secure Boot, but thanks for the info.

    Thanks for the save.

    GPT was the key... to have windows use all 3.6tb (rather than limited to 2.0tb) of a 4.0tb SSD.

  • @TheEthNick

    Thanks buddy. I’ll put this to use with my new NVMe drive ASAP so that it’s ready to be a Windows disc in future. For now, it’ll hold most of my data with a SATA3 SSD handling Windows. But when 2TB NVMe PCIe 4 M.2 drives are more affordable, I’ll shift things around.

    Brilliant explanation but disk management on my laptop running win8.1 does not give a GPT option - Dynamic disk or MBR. Tried on a win 10 laptop and same thing. Disk management shows the unallocated space and also a 260mb efi. An7 explanation forthis welcome. Disk trying to convert is external.

    Best method if the drive I want to convert to GPT houses my OS? I suppose it would crash if I format my startup disk. I have 256gb ssd + 3tb hdd (only 2tb allocated hence why I need GPT) and the mass storage is full.
