Having an issue.
I took my 2TB storage drive out of my PC, I couldn't turn it off and its noisy when its on.
The drive is perfectly fine works inside my computer everything detected and shows up in my computer.
I bought a hard drive dock to make life easier.
It works with all my other hard drives (2.5 and 3.5) but not this 2TB one.
In Disk Management it says Disk 1, Dynamic Invalid when plugged into dock.
Put it back in my computer, its fine, everything shows up as it has been for years.
So I have no clue why this dock will not make it work.

Looked online about dynamic discs, ran some software with converting dynamic to basic without loosing data, but they just fail saying the volumes are "spanned" what ever that means so it cant convert.

Running a Partition Recovery thing right now to see if I can "fix" it, even though theres nothing to fix.

Any ideas, I just want to be able to use this outside of my computer....
