Issue
When attempting to migrate from a "RAID Ready" configuration to a RAID configuration using the Intel® Matrix Storage Console, an error message is received that says the migration cannot continue because the source drive is a dynamic disk. However, the Windows* Disk Management utility lists the drive as a basic disk, not a dynamic disk.
Cause
This issue may occur if there is not enough space for the migration to successfully complete. Instead of reporting that there is not enough space, the Intel Matrix Storage Console reports that the migration cannot continue because the source drive is a dynamic disk.
Note: This error is not related to the size of the destination hard drive(s); it may be received even if the destination hard drive(s) are equal to or greater in size than the source hard drive.
Solution
If there is a single partition on the source hard drive, reducing the size of the partition by a few MBs may resolve the issue and allow the migration to occur.
If there are multiple partitions on the source hard drive, reducing the size of the second partition by a few MBs may resolve the issue and allow the migration to occur.
