Hi,

You have one 256GB M2 SSD in the machine. That is drive C:

You could divide this drive in to two partitions and so have drive D (with software or in Disk Management)

However since the capacity of the drive is only 256GB I would just leave it as it is and store files on C: drive and maybe an external backup drive (or Cloud)

You could replace the drive with a larger capacity drive such as 1TB for example and then divide it into two partitions.

 

Hope it helps,

David
