IFU not listing secondary SSD

Post by JayW »

Hi,

Hope someone can help.

I have a NVMe boot drive, and a GPT partitioned SATA SSD secondary data drive installed in an UEFI only configuration (& no RAID). I'm starting Image for UEFI (v.3.25) from within an installed instance of BootIt UEFI (v.1.05) with the intention of performing a full backup of an OS partition from the boot drive to the data drive.

However, when asked to select the destination drive the SATA drive is not listed? This is in contrast to the BootIt UEFI Partition Work window which lists both drives.

Enabling the Direct DASD IO option in the BootIt UEFI settings made no difference to the behaviour of IFU.

I also booted to the USB key used for the BootIt installation and ran IFU via this source, the Partition Work and IFU results were the same.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Jonathan.

Thanks for the quick reply, but no, the secondary SSD is missing from both the Source Drive/Backup From and File Drive/Backup To screens.

Out of interest, does IFL see the secondary SSD?

Yes, having tested with latest IFL trial running off a USB key and prepared selecting 'Traditional' build, both SSD drives were listed in source and target selection screens
