  • 1.  Endpoint Encryption: can't add second internal SSD

    Posted Aug 12, 2013 01:00 AM

    I have put SEE on a laptop.  A Sony vaio.  The laptop has two identical SSD drives.  I installed SEE before I had formatted the second drive.  Now when I try and add encryption to the second drive it appears in the Partitions not managed by SEE.

     

    How do I get SEE to encrypt the second drive?

    Hi,  Thanks, I did read your post before I posted, and I tried formatting the disk as GPT and MBR with the windows 7 storage thingy.  Didn't seem to make any difference.  Is there a better disk tool?

    I did use the menu option "convert to MBR" when I reread your first reply.  SEE doesn't acknowledge the second disk as manageable.

    Have you tried removing & reinstalling SEE after converting the disk?

    I'll give that a try.  I didn't want to as it means I have to decrypt the boot disk, uninstall SEE, then reinstall SEE.

    Perhaps try an inplace upgrade/reinstall with the "reinstall=all reinstallmode=vomus" switches as a quick test then before the full uninstall/reinstall?
