Windows 10: Windows 11 System Image Backup to a 4 TB Seagate, space required 124 GB, available 3.4 TB:...

I have more than enough space, I just did this same process on my other Windows 10 machine and made the system image without problems using this same Seagate 4 TB external drive. tried a second time with a 132 GB flash drive, and the same message. I only have English installed, I rescanned the disk.

Windows 10 and Seagate Backup Plus Desktop Drive 4 TB

Windows 10 does not recognize my Seagate Backup Plus Desktop Drive 4 TB in file explorer. In Disk Management , the drive is seen as "Disk 2/Unknown/Not Initialized." When I try to initialize it, "Data Error: (cyclic redundancy check)." It worked fine
before I upgraded to Windows 10.

 

3 TB Disk Allocation

I am having problems trying to allocate all of the space on a new 3 TB drive. When I installed windows 10 it installed the system files on the 500 GB SSD and allocated an additional 500 MB on Disc 0 (the 3 TB drive) for System Reserved. I have been able
to create a New Volume (D on some of the unallocated space left over but there is an additional 746 5.52 GB of unallocated space that I can seem to allocate or join to the (D space. How do I make the 746.52 GB useable?

 

Can't access 4 TB Seagate HDD on Windows 10

I recently performed a clean install of Windows 10 on my C drive, a 600 GB that came with my desktop PC and was loaded with bloatware. I wanted to keep some of my files and other data to carry over to Windows 10, though, so I threw all of those files over
to my 4 TB Seagate drive and disconnected the drive before installing W10. I can see the drive in disk management, but I'm unable to access the files on the drive, though. I've tried software (the same software that worked on W7) from Seagate to get it to
work, but those don't recognize my HDD, either. What can I do to access the files on my drive?
