How to get a disk back after expanding a volume?

Question

Hard disks

In general, such a problem. I wanted to transfer Windows from HDD to SSD. Looked at the tutorial on how to do it.
I had to go to "Disk Management" and select the desired disk "Create a simple volume", but I did not find it there, I thought that Windows 11 might be different and found only "Volume Expansion". After starting this procedure, the disk went to "Unallocated" and it is not in Explorer, not in the volumes section in Disk Management.

In the properties of this disk, it works fine, shows the available memory. But when creating a volume on it, it says that there is not enough free space.

Need help getting it back, thanks.

Answer 1

Answer to your own question:
If someone faced the same problem, there is a solution.
I had this disk as "Dynamic", it must be transferred to the "Basic disk" and only after that create a simple volume.
I hope I saved someone an extra 30 minutes.

Answer 2

To transfer Windows, simply clone the system to ssd.
For example, with Acronis, Paragon, Clonezilla, etc.
