You may meet the problem of Disk 1 unknown, not initialized in Windows Disk Management when you try to use an external hard drive on your Windows PC. It can be shown as either Disk unknown, not initialized, no disk space or Disk unknown, not initialized, unallocated space in Windows Disk Management.
Fortunately, this tutorial will show you why your hard drive becomes not initialized in Disk Management and how to solve the problems you have met.
Different methods under different situations:
Situation 1: Disk unknown, not initialized, no disk space
Fix 1. Check hard drive (start from 00:00:48)
Fix 2. Reconnect battery(if applicable) and the disk(start from 00:01:03)
Fix 3. Update disk drivers(start from 00:01:42)
Situation 2: Disk unknown, not initialized, unallocated space
Fix 1. Initialized disk 1(start from 00:02:31)
Fix 2. Rebuild MBR(start from 00:03:23)

Hello, My External Unknown, Not Initialized and not Showing Space . How to solve?
thanks!
you do not state if MBR or GPT rebuild it would destroy all data on the existing drive. not good
Worse than useless
Hey what if mine cant be initialized
BEWARE:
In ordxer to access MBR repair option you need to upgrade to pro version first. So if that's your only problem (and the reason you clicked this video) don't bother with these scam artists.
FU aomei !
TRY THIS!!! mine was a simple fix, I tried and tried everything on the videos but nothing, them realised I was stupid and hadn't actually physically checked the HDD inside the extrenal casing for it. popped it off and the HDD at slipped out of the SATA connection inside the external HDD casing, I just pushed it back in, and it worked… I suspect it slipped out when I accidently dropped it.
why is the program so laggy ??

Every time I start it it takes forever and when it finally show the disk it’s says not responding I closed it the first time the second time I waited for more than 30 minutes and it still said not responding so I closed it and now I’m waiting again. I’m going to try something else
