Windows Restore to a Seagate 2TB BarraCuda HD not working
I have a Windows 10 system with 2 internal hard drives C: (250 GB) and E: (500 GB) that I use as my primary system. I also have a backup / mirror system in case I have an issue with the primary system, I use Windows Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Backup and Restore (Windows 7) to create a system image of my primary system, including both the C: and E: hard drives. I then restore this image including C: and E: to my mirror system and everything is ready in the event my primary system goes down.
Everything was working fine until I installed a new Seagate 2TB BarraCuda HD as the E: drive in my mirror system. Now when I restore the image to the mirror system Windows restore only restores the C: drive, It acts as if it can not see the second Seagate 2TB drive and doesn't give me the option to restore that part of the image (E: Drive). Any Ideas why? Could there be a problem with Windows restore recognizing a 2TB hard drive?
