Hi,

I tried backing up of the factory image of my new dell inspiron laptop using "Dell Backup and Recovery". I used my WD 1TB external hard disk to create a backup. It was success. But, afterthat ; my 1TB HDD showing as 32 GB SYSRECOVERY.
I had important data in that. How to restore my hard drive to earlier state?

Thanks
Sateesh

If HDD Capacity Restore does not see hard drives attached to S-ATA ports, then first of all I’d try to go into BIOS setup and locate S-ATA settings. There has to be a way to switch S-ATA ports into “Normal” or “Compatible” or “Legacy” mode (as opposed to “Native”). This should resolve the issue.
