Beachdoc Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 So far I've had no success in the ability to image the drive and expand the music partition another 10GB using Acronis True Home 10.0 on a 40gb HDD. Any other suggestions? The unit reads the HD is unreadable on boot. Thanks in advance for those who have had success. Also, I've partitioned the drive with Acronis, erased all files on HD and recopied them from my image and that failed. My guess is that it's Acronis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I've partitioned the drive with Acronis, erased all files on HD and recopied them from my image and that failed. My guess is that it's Acronis. 1. Clone the whole image (all partitions) on the new drive. 2. Using Acronis Partition Expert (or Disk Director) to increase the fourth partition (USER) to use all unallocated space. 3. Still using Arconis Partition Exprt, increase the free space of the third partition (music - MSV), pick the fourth partition to get free space from, adjust the desire space, be sure to leave about 600MB for the USER partition. Acronis may ask you to reboot computer to complete the operations, do so. You should have an operational drive for Z2. Hope that helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
