Use internal drive as recovery media?

Post by thensel »

Hello,

we have an Windows System with 2 internal drives.
Is it possible to use the second internal drive as a recovery media?
I am not able to choose this drive within the recovery media creation wizzard.

Best Regards!

Might be something to do with the way it is formatted or GPT/MBR configuration.

It would be easy to create the .iso file somewhere else and then use a bootable media creation tool to write the contents of the .ISO to your second disk.

Hello and welcome to the community thensel.

Internal drives are not supported as a target for Recovery Media creation. The only way would be to store the .iso image and burn it with any third party tools whenever it's required. Cheers!
