I'm quite afraid.
Hey there,
I accidentally change my only HDD to dynamic, is it safe to convert it to basic like this?

Hello grikomsn, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Yes, step 3 in OPTION ONE would be safe to use to convert it back to Basic without losing anything. To be safe, I would still recommend to backup anything that you do not want to lose. :)

Shawn,
In option 3 a link to PW v4.22 ISO for making a boot CD could also be useful for converting your OS HDD.

Hi
Trying to load win 8 on my wife's HP notebook on which all disks are dynamic!!
I have downloaded partition magic and eseus and because they are free, neither of them provide the option to convert a dynamic disc to basic.
I have the paid for paragon disk suite 12 and that also does not provide any solutions to working with dynamic disks.
I would appreciatee any other suggestions.
Many thanks

Heya,
Trying to use EaseUS, but it says the EFI/MSR partition will be lost if I use that option.
What do I do now? =o
The thing is, I have a laptop that came with a 1TB hdd with windows on it, and a 16GB caching SSD. I have swapped the caching SSD out for a 256GB SSD, and have succesfully installed windows on that. Without really realizing the impact it'd have, when changing the partitions on the 1TB hdd, I changed it to a dynamic disk. I want to change it back, but without losing ANY data. Here's a screenshot:
