Query to convert RAW disk

• NTFS drive got converted to RAW disk

  My NTFS driver converted to RAW and I can't access it, would you please help?

  How I can access without lossing my data!

  Hello Mohamed,

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  The NTFS file system provides the best performance and security for data on hard disks and partitions or volumes that

  the FAT file system used in some earlier versions of Windows.

  Raw disk is used to designate a hard disk access to a raw, binary level, under data from partition level and using file system in the MBR.

  I suggest you to refer to this article and check if it helps.
  Reference:
  Convert a hard disk or partition to NTFS format
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/convert-hard-disk-partition-NTFS-format#1TC=Windows-7

  Important notes:
  After you convert a partition to the NTFS format, you cannot convert it back. If you want to reuse FAT filesystem on the partition, you will need to reformat the partition, which erases all data on it.

  Some earlier versions of Windows cannot read data on local NTFS partitions. If you need to use an earlier version of Windows to access a partition on the computer, do not convert it to NTFS.

  Although the risk of corruption or loss of data during a conversion is minimal, you must back up all data on the partition before you begin.

  I hope this information helps.

  Please let us know if you need more help.

  Thank you

• RAW disk mapping - virtual Conversion / physics?

  Hi all

  I have set up a machine virtual everything on time with a basic disk and also an extra disk I configured as a "Raw Disk Mapping. When I set up the new drive with the wizard in VC, he asked me if I wanted to set up the drive as a virtual disk or physical disk. The Assistant said that if I set it up as a virtual drive, it might be included in the snapshots etc...

  At this point I have it configured with physical access.

  What I want to do now is to convert the disk to a virtual disk, so I wonder if there is a way to do it?

  Best regards, Nick.

  Stop the virtual machine and delete the ROW. Then add the ROW to the VM in virtual compatibility mode and start your virtual machine. You should be good.

• Extensions for Photos for Mac; can convert RAW Photos?

  Downloaded "2016 creative Kit" on the site of macphun fairly recently so don't always do not have much with CK apps. I like the clean interface of Snapheal and intensify and had a go using these with the opening and Photos: the process is smoother with Photos; with Aperture, retouching a given photo tends to take more time to commute between a software for the back and other feels a bit 'hectic' (a closing and another opening, with the visible screen between the two...).

  So I intend to spend some time at the Photos now. The question is: can you convert RAW?

  Photos may develop all RAW formats supported by Mac OS X, see: Digital camera RAW formats supported by OS X El Capitan - Apple Support

  For a very good RAW support, you can also try DxO Optics Pro Extension for Photos.

• convert the disk basic dynamic - not an option

  Hello. I found this article (314343 KB) and attempted to convert a dynamic volume to my hard drive so that I can extend so that it uses the unallocated space. I followed these instructions:

  Convert a disk from basic to dynamic disk

  Use the disk management snap-in in Windows XP to convert a disk from basic to dynamic disk. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group.
  2. Click Startand then click Control Panel.
  3. Click performance and Maintenance, click Administrative Toolsand then double-clickcomputer management.
  4. In the left pane, click disk management.
  5. In the lower pane, right-click the basic disk that you want to convert, and then clickconvert to dynamic disk.

  I'm stuck at this point, because when I right click on this drive, "convert" was not an option. Is there another way to do this without having to buy software? I tried to use Acronis Disk Director, but he won't do anything more than 100 MB with the trial version.

  The computer is running XP Pro. Thank you.

  You must be a right click on the partition. But you must click on the disc (a box before all the partitions on the disk with all the things written as disk 0 Basic etc.) make a right click on it and then click on convert to dynamic. either go to command prompt by running type cmd. Enter the following commands with each line ending with:

  DiskPart
  list disk
  Select disk 0 (where disk 0 is your drive you want from the previous command)
  convert DYNAMIC
  output
  It will be useful.

• After the reduction of volume, I get "selected Operation will convert dynamic disks.

  Disk partitioning error

  I recently bought a laptop HP with Windows 7 Home Edition Basic, wanted to shrink the C drive to create another partition. However, after the reduction of the volume, I got this error:

  Operation you selected will convert dynamic disks. You will not be able to boot the operating system from any other volumes on the disk.

  It's because win7 only supports 4 basic primary partitions and your system already has 4.

  Don't not procceed in dynamic conversion because it will cause other problems later.

  If you do not create the partion when / if you are using the HP recovery disks that will destroy any partition that you created.

  If I were you I would like to extend C to use this free space, you created i.e. cancel what you were doing in the shrinking, and then explain the purpose of the planned partition.

• Are third party software to convert dynamic disk to basic Drive Safe?

  Hi all

  I installed Windows 8 Pro on my laptop recently. Now, my hard drive got converted to basic dynamic. I want to use third-party software like EaseUs Partition Manager or Assistant Partition AOMEI. I want to know if it is safe to do so?  Are there Complications?

  Hi harsh,

  Note:

  There is a high risk of data loss. Make sure that you back up all the your impotent data before trying these steps.

  You can try the steps from here (article is for Win 7, but it also applies to win 8)

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755238.aspx

  See the section additional Considerations of the article mentioned above.

  • The disk must not have any volumes nor contain no data until you can change to a basic disk. If you want to keep your data, back it up or move it to another volume, before converting the disk a basic disk.
  • Removal of volume will erase all data.

  Once the disks are converted to Basic, you must reinstall the operating system or to perform a factory reset.

• How to convert raw files from my D300 Nikion for AdobeRGB sRGB?

  How to convert raw files sRGB to my Nikon D300 AdobeRGB files for use in Lightroom and Photoshop?

  I got caught for years in sRGB because I read that it is better for sharing on the web if any alteration in Photoshop may be made.  Now I have the time to focus on learning Photoshop and Lightroom.  Should I opt for color my default AdobeRGB camera mode?  Can I easily convert existing files to sRGB to AdobeRGB in Lightroom/Photoshop?  I understand, as a beginner, is that sRGB files cannot be modified and files AdobeRGB.

  Thanks for your help.

  George Ollen

  Save as raw rather than jpg. Then the color profile will not be embedded in the file. Then Lightroom or camera raw can assign AdobeRGB or SRGB color profile.

  BTW, if you choose - choose AdobeRGB and then convert to SRGB, not the other way around. AdobeRGB has a broader that is SRGB. It's easier to strip color to add.

• VDR and RAW disk

  Hello everyone, just to confirm: RAW disk are supported by only if VDR mode virtual, right?

  Also, is it possible to back up a single virtual disk, I.e. C only to a virtual windows machine?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  VDR uses snapshots to back up the virtual machine. Drives ROUGH that support snapshots in virtual mode, then you are on the first part.

  It is possible to backup virtual disks with VDR. But don't mix no disks and partitions Windows here. It is possible to create a 100 GB virtual disk and create a 50 GB C: and 50 GB D: in this example, you could save only two partitions because you only have a virtual disk.

  If you create a virtual disk for each partition, you can of course save it one by one.

  Kind regards.

• external USB disk as a raw disk

  Hello

  I was looking for the solution but could not find.

  I have VMware server installed 1.0.6 on Windows XP.

  Machine VM I created since the downturn of the performance, I thought using raw disk option (I hope that better read/write performance).

  I want to format my external drive (WD My Book), using ext3 or xfs. Next, I would like to add as a 'raw disk' (not VMDK). I don't know why, but when I check the settings & gt; Material & gt; Hard drive there is no option to add PhisicalDrive which is the USB drive. VMware server can see only my hard drive (PhisicalDrive0) on the laptop, but nothing else.  Is this normal? Can I add PhisicalDrive which is the external drive connected to the USB port? If Yes, please indicate how tcan I do.

  USB devices can be "directly" connected to the virtual machine. FireWire devices are considered as a pci device and will not be seen by the virtual machine, like an ethernet card or a pcmcia wlan or other device pci card.

• Raw disk

  When do I have to consider creating a raw disk instead of the standard?

  What are the advantages and disadvantages of RAW disk?

  Hello

  RDM requires remote storage as a SAN. If you use a Local Storage LUN then you must use a CRUDE device using the method shown in this Blog of TechTarget.
