Hi! I have cloned my old 0.5 TB SSD onto a new 1 TB SSD and installed it . PC boots nicely. Problem. The old 0.5 TB SSD was partitionied and in a C and a J volume. Volume J does not appear in the volume managementand also not in the Win Explorer; see attached screenshot. How can I find my old volume J? Thanks in advance.
Was 'J:' selected when you did the |"clone"?
If you didn't transfer it then you can shrink C: and copy the partition from your old disk.
I assume you still have that...
Yes, I cloned C and J so J should be somewhere on the new SSD, have you had a look on my attached screenshot?
And thank you for your reply/.
You can't see it and I can't see it. So that suggests your clone wasn't a clone as in an exact copy.
Can you see any space on the 1TB disk where it might be?
And note: 'exact copy' doesn't apply anyway as clearly your new C: is much larger than the original.
Again: do you still have a J partition on your old disk? How big is it?

Your Recovery Partition is still on (1) and 546 MB!
Cloning is not an option for you!
(J:) is not there!
Run a backup and use the Recovery option for (C:)
You have to do the partitioning before you clone!
How big was the J: partition?
To find all the partitions on the drive, open a CMD window as administrator and type:
diskpart
select disk 0
list part (It will list all partitions)
exit (to exit diskpart)
Your drive layout if very old. MS has moved the Recovery partition to the right of the C: partition
This is the normal size of the partitions:
EFI - Fat32 - 100M
MSR - RAW - 16M
C: - NTFS - All remaining drive space
Recovery - NTFS - 1G (if it isn't at least 850M you should make it bigger or some updates won't install)
What is the cloning program you have?
Diskmgmt screenshot only shows the (presumably cloned) new 1tb and some other 4tb. The original 500gb disk is not in the screenshot.I have cloned my old 0.5 TB SSD onto a new 1 TB SSD and installed it .
Hi guys, thank you all for your replies. I must have forgotten to clone J: But I had a copy of it on an external drive. So I just copied that after I made new partitions on the new SSD.
