ATI 2009 - Can't Recognize One Hard Drive

Can't figure out why one of my drives doesn't show up for cloning. It does appear in ATI 2009 under the bac-up wizard but not the clone wizard. Under windows the disk appears and works fine. I did a reformat on it but still nothing in ATI 2009.

Here is a pix from my Computer Management / Disk Management window. See how all four drives are there (they also all appear under My Computer window):

Here is pix from ATI 2009 where I pick the Source Hard Disk (gone is the 232.89g disk):

Here is the next window where I pick where to clone to - still missing:

But, if I go to the back-up wizard in ATI 2009 it shows up :

Why do you have two "IDE(0)Secondary Master"?? Shouldn't one of them be called IDE(0)Primary Master?

The missing 232.89GB drive, is it SATA or PATA? If it is SATA, what mode is your motherboard using to see it?

 

I only have one IDE hard drive and the DVD is also hooked up to IDE. They both work fine.

The 232.89GB drive is SATA - what mode it is I don't know! What does that mean (sorry)?

 

Enter the BIOS.

Look there about something like "NATIVE IDE" or "AHCI".

What Mainboard do you have? (with Revision number and BIOS version, please)

 

In the motherboards BIOS screen you can select for SATA drives these three modes:

Disabled
Compatible
Enhanced

 

Maybe at your BIOS...
But you are not alone all over the world.


@savageguy
The option extremely depends from BIOS.
Please give me your MB manufacturer and revision. I look for the right manual and inform you where you have to look in your bios to find the right option.

 

Did I say his BIOS? LOL

 

If you want to argue, do it with yourself.
Have a long life.

 

I'm back - was cloning a different drive so obviously couldn't get back.

Motherboard is ASUS P5B American Megatrends V02.58

IDE set to Native IDE (not AHCI) Enhanced

Hope this makes sense - doesn't to me!

 

Yes, that is the information I need.

Acronis Ti always can work with "Native IDE" flawlessly.
That cannot be the reason of your issue.
Thank you for investigation.

Hm, what Ti build do you have? (press ALT-key and look into menu)

 

MrMorse please do not argue it will shorten your life.

 

Acronis 2009 build 9646.

I discovered this problem a couple days ago and had updated to latest build this morning before posting. I think that the original build I had (which I D/L'd I think on the 8th) was 9615?.

THANKS for your assistance so far - you guys are fast!

 

Which model of the ASUS P5B is it?

Does it have JMicron SATA ports? If so, is the drive connected to that controller or are all of them connected to the ICH8/ICH8R controller?

Be aware that if the JMicron controller is used that it also has its own mode settings.

If you boot to the TI CD, does it properly see all of your drives?

---

When you select to do a Files & Folders / Data type backup, the drive will show up because it's being accessed normally as a drive for selection of files/folders.

 

Hello savageguy,

Thank you for your interesting in Acronis True Image

I have sent you private message. The most probable reason for the issue are not correctly installed SnapAPI drivers. Install them and see if the issue persists.

Best regards,
