I run Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS that was installed on an a 256GB SSD. I got a new Samsung 1 TB NVMe SSD but I can't seem to access it from File Explorer.

In Settings-> About-> Disk Capacity = 1.2TB

In Disks:

Model: Samsung SSD 980 PRO 1TB (3B2QGXA7)

Size: 1,0 TB (1000204886016 bytes)

Partitioning: GUID Partition Table

Device: /dev/nvme0n1

Contents: Unallocated Space

How do I solve this step by step?

You need at least one partition with a file system.

Open the "Disks" application.

If the drive is not yet formatted, choose "Format Disk..."

Then select the disk and click the + button to add a new file system. Read the prompts to choose a file system that is appropriate for your use case.
