I just cloned a SanDisk 4GB Sandisk micro SD card onto a Samsung Evo 64GB card, and now my new card shows a 4GB.
I used HDDRawCopy to do this. Can anyone tell me how to reverse this back to 64GB?
Thank you.
It is because the file system was also copied to the 64GB card. The file system says it is 4GB.
If you still want your data in the card, you need to adjust it with some partitioning tools, like this one: http://www.disk-partition.com/ AOMEI. It has a free edition for Windows users. I think it can be used to adjust the partition size. If it cannot, you may need to move out your files, delete the 4GB partition, and create a new one.
If you use Linux, you may want to usegparted
.
The reason you have this problem is that the volume you copied over is smaller than the drive you copied it onto. The simplest way to fix this is to reformat the drive, also called repartitioning.
However, you could also expand the 4Gb volume to fill the new disk. You may be able to do this with the same tool you used for cloning. I know gparted can do this, but it is for advanced and/or careful users, so YMMV.
