Default Re: Playback and Record Volume messages - read this!

Hi folks,

So, the answer is that the pro tools working only with basic drives not dynamic.
It means that you should convert your dynamic Hard Drive to Basic.
How to do it?

1. Go to Start\Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Computer Management.
2. In the Computer Management window click on Disk Management.
3. Check the drives 0.1.2 etc. where its says Basic or Dynamic.
4. Back up all volumes on the disk you want to convert from dynamic to
basic.
5. Right-click each volume on the dynamic disk you want to convert to a
basic disk, and then click Delete Volume for each volume on the disk.
6. When all volumes on the disk have been deleted, right-click the disk, and
then click Convert To Basic Disk.
7. The disk must not have any volumes nor contain any data before you can
change it back to a basic disk. If you want to keep your data, back it up
or move it to another volume before you convert the disk to a basic disk.
8. Once you change a dynamic disk back to a basic disk, you can create only
partitions and logical drives on that disk.

From now on your huge brand new HD will work with Pro Tools!

Good luck!!!
