Validate Problems

Thread needs solution

I just installed and formatted (NTFS) a new Hitachi 2 TB HDD for backups. I made my first backup with Acronis TrueImage Home 2010 today, and it failed to validate. I tried this several times, and all attempts failed to validate. However the backups seem to mount okay. Also, as a test, I made a backup to a different HDD (WD 640 GB) and it validated just fine. Checkdisk doesn't show any problems with the Hitachi disk. Any ideas, anyone? I'm baffled.

The validation that matters the most is one done when booted into the Rescue CD.

See if they both validate from the CD.

Thanks. I'll try that. Right now I'm reformatting the 2 TB drive, and it takes quite a while to format such a large disk. I'm trying to get the scheduler set up to automatically back up every morning at 1:00 am, and I want to back up a desk top, a laptop, and a netbook - thus the large capacity.
