I cloned my hard drive and then found out that is not what I wanted to do because I couldn't use the remaining space to hold files. I have a 2TB external hard drive and in disk management it says I only have around 500GB (which is what my computer internal hard drive has). Upon finding this out I tried to reverse what I did. I was only able to go into disk management and delete some partition in a attempt to erase what I did but that didn't work.

I just want to be able to save files to my external again, but I can't access it...help

Does Disk Management see the remaining space as unallocated?

Did you clone the drive inside the enclosure, or did you clone it inside your computer? Was it a sector-by-sector clone?
