Problem with h drive.

Hi Maria,

You can use the File Explorer to scan your external thumb drive. To get started, please follow the steps below.

• Open the File Explorer.
• Locate the H drive that you'd like to scan.
• Right-click it and select Properties.
• Go to Tools tab and click Check under
  Error checking section.

Feel free to respond if you need additional help.

Kind regards.

 

How to convert RAW partition to NTFS partition.

Thanks for your reply. Apparently the convert drive to NTFS doesn't work when the drive is RAW. After following your instructions in step 2 I get message "convert is not available for RAW drives.

Any suggestions?

 

Converting external drive from fat32 to ntfs

Im attempting to convert my external hd using cmd in windows 7,

ive ran convert h: /fs:ntfs - it does its checks and says the drive is dirty, it then suggests running autochk or chkdsk /f,

i ran chkdsk /f, it finds no problems etc, so i re-run the convert command and it still says the drive is dirty, ive attempted to run autochk but it won't run in win32 mode.

how can i get it to convert to ntfs?

ps; its a 320gb freecom drive with 25gb free, i know some drives can be a bit funny about space before attempting something like this, im sure 25gb is more than enough to attempt this conversion.

help please. *Smile
