Please Help Me!! I will lost my data.
Posted: 31 May 2018, 07:40
A few days ago I bought 8TB hard and moved all my data there.
This 8TB hard was docked only when needed and left in the 'Dynamic disk' state for use.
However, since 'Disk Management' showed two identical 8TB hard disks, I deleted one of them.
After that, 8TB hard was displayed as 'online' but it could not be accessed because it was not activated.
To solve this problem I have to change 'Dynamic disk' to 'Basic disk' in 'Disk Management', but this will erase all files.
So I downloaded 'testdisk' and changed 'Dynamic disk' to 'Basic disk' as described in the manual.
In the manual, after completing all the processes and rebooting, the hard disk status will be changed to 'Basic disk'.
However, when I actually rebooted, I only saw the boot screen with the mainboard logo and it did not boot up.
I waited for about 6 hours, but nothing progressed.
So I removed the hard disk and was able to reboot again.
When the hard disk was docked, it never booted.
If you connect hard after booting, the PC does not recognize it.
I do not know why the reason for not booting is hard capacity, or something else is wrong.
Is it because I used the 'backup' option during the testdisk process?
How can I solve this problem?
Failure to resolve this issue will result in the loss of all data.
The solution I'm thinking about is to try it on another PC, but I do not know if that's possible.
Please let me know how to fix it.
