#INITIALIZE DRIVE WITH DISKPART UPDATE#
I would like to use windows directly or to rely on a FOSS solution.įeel free to ask more precision or information in comment, I will update this post to add them. Most search I made online went to website promoting their own solution like aomei, partition wizard or minitool. It seems legit because DISKPART already show that DISK 1 has 0B free. Partition, (only logical drives may be created).

More partitions may be created), or 3 primary partitions and one extended Partitioning format and the disk contains either 4 primary partitions, (no It may be that the disk is partitioned using the MBR disk Specifyĭifferent size and offset values or don't specify either to create the It may be that there is insufficientįree space to create a partition at the specified size and offset. Selecting Disk 1 and creating a primary partition there will prompt this: No usable free extent could be found. Is there a link between Disk 1 and Disk 2? Does fixing Disk 1 will solve the problem? At that point, maybe we should dig into what is Disk 1. We have Disk 1 from the Disk Management tool. Running LIST DISK prompt: DISKPART> LIST DISKĭisk 0 is my main disk. Beside, uninstalling the device did not help.ĭisk 2 does not have an assigned letter, so afaik, I cant use chkdsk X: /r.
#INITIALIZE DRIVE WITH DISKPART DRIVERS#
I also searched for updated drivers on Windows Update without success. On the device manager I tried to update the driver, but the best drivers for your device are already installed. In both case, I get the following error: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.

If I try to initialize it using a MBR partition, then a GPT one. On the disk management tool, I can see my problematic disk (Disk 2): I am using an external case connected to my computer through USB3. I have a 1TB 2.5" HDD causing me some trouble.
