Recovery tool doesn't see my backup disk
When I used Acronis to create an image backup of my C: drive it only gave me the option to back it up to my J: (extrenal) drive, not my D: (internal). When I boot with the Acronis software it sees the D: drive but not the J:. I know I can copy the 417 GB file from one drive to the other but it makes no sense I need to do that. What else can I do?
I'm trying to move to an SSD drive that's smaller than my current C: drive so I have touse Acronis to shrink the partition as it creates it. Yes, the contents will fit on the smaller drive.

The configuration is:
Old C: Sata 1, D: Sata 2, J: USB, Z: (DVD) Sata 3
I was able to restore the partition from the D: drive after copying the .tib file for J:. By the way, after copying it to D: and rebooting Acronis was able tosee the J: drive.
