    How do I format my volume that is Raw to Ntfs.


    Im installing windows 10 from a bootable USB because boot manager failed. But I cant install it because all volumes are Raw Except the usb. How can I format the volume?


    When I type format fs=ntfs and hit enter in cmd. It sais DiskPart has encountered an error: Incorrect parameter. See the System Event Log for more information.

    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?

    How do I format my volume that is Raw to Ntfs.

    Mirrored Drive gone from NTFS to RAW format

    I have a separate Mirrored drive on my PC which is made up of two 4TB drives (Disk 2 and Disk 3). The Operating system is not on this drive, these are internal drives running off my motherboard.

    Something has gone wrong and the drives now show up as RAW format.

    Disk status is

    Disk 2 - Errors

    Disk 3 - Online

    I ran some software to recover the files, however it indicates the file size to be pretty much the size of the disk. My plan is to:

    1. break the mirrored volume

    2. Format one of the drives to NTFS

    3. Run the recovery software off the remaining RAW drive and put the recovered files on the newly formatted drive

    4. Format the other drive to NTFS and then

    5. Rebuild the mirror

    Sounds simple enough, however, seeing as they are in RAW format, could I lose any data when I break the mirror?

    Will my plan work basically? I need to tread carefully as I can't afford to lose data.

    Thanking you in advance for any assistance.
