hawk32 1 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 No usable free extent could be found. It may be that there is insufficientfree space to create a partition at the specified size and offset. Specifydifferent size and offset values or don't specify either to create themaximum sized partition. It may be that the disk is partitioned using the MBR diskpartitioning format and the disk contains either 4 primary partitions, (nomore partitions may be created), or 3 primary partitions and one extendedpartition, (only logical drives may be created). anybody know how to fix?

Mr Grumpy 714 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Is it a new one or one that you've had for a while and used before? Have you tried formatting the drive? If new it's possibly a scam one. If old it has got scrambled. Probably beyond help unless anyone else has any ideas 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Grumpy 714 Report post Posted August 31, 2013 We've had something similar about 6 months ago on TS and the final solution after lots of suggestions was to dump the drive. It had got totally corrupted internally so was then useless. Unfortunately this things don't last for ever. I've had a couple I've thrown away because they stopped working Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eatmyshorts 201 Report post Posted September 4, 2013 just as an outside shot.....have you tried to reformat the drive? And have you checked it in admin tools under storage? Or even run a diagnostic check on it? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
