Default Not a Valid Audio Volume? how do u make it that?

I was wondering if anyone has some advice for me. I just recently bought an mbox and have started fooling around and i also bought a new hard drive for saving the files on. Every time i try to save a new session on my new hard drive it will not allow me. It states "session must be on a
audio record volume". Any Help?

You have to go to 'Show Workspace' and then allocate your drive as a record drive.

Open PT's, go to Windows on the top menu,click on Show Workspace beside the name of the drive 'D' or whatever, click on the letter under the letter 'A' then choose record.

I've seen that before in a thread in the past..I don't remember what it was..Try a search of the forum for "not a valid audio volume" and include all dates in the search.

Check to see that the drive is formatted as a basic drive, not dynamic.
