How to ignore hard drives size with Windows Server Backup (Win-2008) restore?
- by Jason
I used Windows Server Backup to backup my 640GB boot drive. Only about 30GB is used, and the backup was very fast.
Now I am trying to restore the image to a 500GB hard drive but it is saying that the drive is too small... even though I only had 30GB on the original backup.
How do I overide this and have the restore ignore that I only have a 500GB drive? If I can't, then I can't restore the hard drive with anything except one that is equal to or bigger than the original hard drive - which would be a real bummer.
