When will AOMEI enable backup of Windows 7 Ultimate on the new large storage drives that are becoming the norm.  Drive sellers and manufacturer presented product as compaitble with Windows 7.  My drive is working, but Windows 7 backup will not work.  AOMI limited to 2TB.

    AOMEI Backupper supports drives beyond 2TB. 

    Your 5TB
    external HDD may be an advanced format disk, and AOMEI Backupper doesn't support
    it for now. This is a temporary problem.

    Currently, Advance Format is referring inparticular to 4096 bytes (4k) sectors format disks. You can find the definition
    of what Advanced Format is on Wikipedia. In short, it can be more efficient to use disk space and provides a more efficient mechanism of data integrity error checking.
