If you uninstall or move the drive to a different computer, the data can still be accessed after installing the Capacity Manager driver. I have a seagate barracuda 3TB and my mobo can only detect 1TB of it (I know I know install the software and enable an option there) however my question is what if my I uninstalled the the wizard? will the data I put on the 2TB that only got detected through software disappear? what about if I transfer the hard drive to another PC without the software? what happens to the data inside it? Question about the "discwizard" software. I asked seagate's support on facebook and this was the conversation I will get back and let you known if I found something or not. I will loke into it agian, might be that there are more new answers on the net about it. And like it looks like, it installes some files on the HDD/SSD so the system can recognice it. In fact it's all the same, the program only upgrades the possebility of the OS, nothing more. Why should it be possible to do it with smaller HDD's/SSD's and not bigger? And when switching or whatever the HDD/SSD without data lost, the OS will take care of it. What my thinking about the software is, is that it should be standard come with the OS. I tried to recover the data, but no luck. I thought it would keep the data (when enough disk space left ofcourse) and shrinks the partition. One thing is surten, when you do a partition size change, the data will be lost. I have the OS and the applications (including the disc wizard on a separate SSD so I guess its safe for nowīut what if I migrate the HDD to another set-up that doesn't have the software? does the data on it disappear permanently for the reason that its software wasn't installed/turned yet? Thanks for the reply so simply put if the software goes haywire/deleted/whatever that damages it the data that occupies the hard drive that wasn't seen before the installation of the discwizard will be gone for good (from what I understand)? Hopefully I let you known enough, that you will find the answers you seek! When you do so, let us known how and what! And I can tell you, that sucks!Ĭreate first a backup or even a disc clone of it all and give it a try. Well, I had to download nearly 2TB software again.
The power got cut off and everything was lost and when you want to change the disk size, try it with one HDD to test is. I had to do a system reinstallation, I used Windows system backup. When the software is gone, the nother part you have by the software, it might be that you will not have the nother parts saves, nor will get it back.
The reason I think of that I have 2x 3TB HDD's, one with the OS on it what has being extended with the rest of GB of the drive.
