Hi folks,

I use windows 7 32 bit.

I have acronis home 2010 but intend to upgrade to 2015 but have a few questions if I may,

1 I bought a 3TB internal hard drive for desktop but just found out that windows 7 will only recognise 2TB of it unless it is converted to a GPT drive, and the problem is then that my acronis home 2010 can't see the partitions on it, will acronis 2015 be able to see the partitions on a GPT internal drive?

2 If the answer to the above is in the affirmative will I be able to install my present MBR whole drive backups into the new GPT drive with acronis 2015 and will they work fine?

many thanks for your kind help.
Joe

Yes, 2015 will be able to see the GPT disk.

If the new drive is used to store data, the transition from MBR to GPT is seamless. If the new GPT drive is supposed to become your boot drive, it is another question altogether, since Windows 7 32bit cannot boot on GPT/UEFI configurations.

There is a big change in UI and concept between Acronis 2010 and Acronis 2015. Make sure you make a backup of your system with Acronis 2010 before upgrading.
To upgrade, uninstall 2010, use the cleanup utility provided by Acronis, follow all instructions carefully including the registry checks. Reboot and then install 2015.

Since 2011, 2010 users have had trouble getting used to the more recent versions. Since 2011, ATI manages backup tasks, not individual backup files. YOu create a task and then run the task to get the following backups.

Try it and see for youself.

Thank you Pat for your help. As I read it by your comments that rules out then booting from the GPT drive with all my windows 7 32 bit OS on it.

I do have two drives on my computer one a data but its only 2 TB with various partitions. It is not as quiet or as fast as my latest 3TB drive that I would like to put windows 7 dual boot on in different partitions, and have all the space allocated. I do have all the windows 7OS on it at the moment but 700gb can't be allocated.

Would it be possible to make the data MBR drive the first drive in the BIOS use EasyBCD to copy the MBR over and set one of the data partitions active and letting it boot into the windows 7 in the new 3 TB GPT drive?

Probably not!

Might be best to let well enough alone and just forget about the 700 gb unallocated space in my present new 3TB drive that has dual boot windows 7 on it.

Thanks again
Joe
