Acronis boot media for cloning won't recognise external SATA drives.
Can someone please help me to solve my problem with my Acronis 2010 Home boot utility? I've got it on a DVD and boot from it in order to clone my drives. I know, it's old but it worked for me for years and on this machine it always worked without any issues (until recently I tried to instal Acronis 2019 version and then uninstalled it).
Basically I can't see any external SATA HDD or SSD that is connected by the USB when I wanna clone the drive. The configuration of the laptop hasn't changed, it's been the same since I bought it.
When I hook it up to my old laptop which has USB 2.0, it can recognise all external drives I have without any problems.
This is really puzzling me how is it possible that it suddenly stopped working when the only thing that has changed in the equation is me installing the 2019 version and then removing it. (I haven't installed that 2019 to that old laptop tho).
