Error with Diskpart

[gerardkcohen]

I am attempting to create multiple partitions on a drive using CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=N ALIGN=64.

I can create the first partition with no problems, however subsequent attempts give me the error "diskpart was unable to create the specified partition" unless I drop off the align=64 parameter.

There are no other partitions on the drive, so technically I should be to create an additional 3 after the first one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FYI: I am trying this on a RAID 1 and RAID 5 array. Disks are basic.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This was solved after updating to SP2.

Lesson of the story is to update first after a fresh install before attempting to use diskpart.
