one of my SSD's are listed as GPT, NO idea how this happened. Only
used for storage. There two identical, only is listed GPT when I run Diskpart
Thought about trying to get rid of that, not sure why. They are only
250gb drives.
no harm I suppose, just no idea where the gpt came from.

OK, I found out what needs to be done & since no one else knows I
thought I'd share it with you. This way, if you make the same
mistake you'll know what to do. I guess GPT disks need to be
unmounted or removed from disk mgmt & then there will be no issues
at all. I don't know this for certain but someday I'll have the
chance to check this out. However, if you didn't know any better,
like me, the best course of advice is to just reattach the drive
where it was & go from there. Big differences from MBR to GPT. HTH
