    Will SeaTools for Dos recognize usb hard drives ?


    Trying to run down an issue with my WIN 10 Pro 64bit system. If I run SeaTools for DOS off a CD...all I can get are my sata/ide drives. My problem external drive is a Seagate USB 2T...but none of my usb external drives show up under Seatools for Dos ?

    Is it me or is this normal ?

    Thanks...TiminAz

    Consider running Sea Tools for Windows:

    And see if you can run other drive testing software:

    The basic issue is that DOS doesn't recognize USB although there are programs/add-ins available on the Internet that can accomplish that.
