Cannot convert GPT to MBR.

Hi Michael,



I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

This method you have to backup all your data and delete all partitions and volumes. Then use the
DISKPART command.

• Open command prompt and type in DISKPART and press Enter
• Then type in list disk (Note down the number of disk you want to convert to GPT)
• Then type in select disk number of disk
• Finally type in convert gpt.

Hope the information helps. Do reply if you need further assistance.

 

Convert MBR to GPT without data loss?

The built-in Utility should remove all the data from the drive but you can use Ease US free that allows you to convert to GPT without losing data.

Converting MBR to GPT

I finally got a new array running, 3TB currently. One disk already had some data and there was an option to create a new array without losing that data. I figured that would safe me time (it didn't) so did it. Converting the whole crap took about 40 hours (not exaggerating) which was rather unexpected. Now I have a 3TB array which needs to be GPT, not MBR. Though converting to GPT can only be done on empty disks. Google so far doesn't come with some tool that can convert disks without losing data, would anyone know of a tool that can do such a thing? I don't feel like breaking the array, copying all data, converting the disk, copying everything back, restoring the array. It would take about 300 years to do that.
