Hi there,
So back when Windows 7 only allowed use of 2tb max hard drives I adjusted my current Seagate ST3000 to only have around 2450gb showing to windows or around that to get it to be seen. Now in Windows 10 I have the same amount of space because at the time of doing that to the hard drive I used a program to artificially limit the drive so as windows could see it correctly, even though I was sacrificing space.
Is there anyway to reverse this? I've tried the Disk management tool within windows and there are no hidden or un-allocated partitions?
I just want the drive to its full size as to my knowledge the limitations of windows 7 are gone?
Thanks for the time in reading this, I've just done a 14 hour shift so apologies for grammar, spelling and layout etc, i'm too tired to think straight!
Thanks for any advice, I'm heading to bed now but will reply to answers in the morning.
Much appreciated, Dan.
