I accidentally switched my M.2 drive to dynamic, and now I'm in a bit of a bind. I even uninstalled it through its properties, but now it seems to have disappeared from my entire system. The drive still shows up in BIOS and File Explorer, but I can't access it at all. It doesn't appear in Device Manager, Control Panel, or Disk Management either. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can revert this change and get my drive back?

If the drive isn’t showing up in Diskpart, that's a bad sign. At least it’s still recognized in BIOS, which is a good start. Have you tried restarting your computer or checking for any hardware issues? Sometimes just reseating the drive in its slot can help.
First, you might want to check if the drive shows up in Diskpart, which is a command-line tool in Windows. Open Command Prompt as an administrator, type 'diskpart', then 'list disk' and see if it appears there. If it does, you can try converting it back to a basic disk. Just make sure you don't have any important files on it, as converting can erase data.
