STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information in this article when the information becomes available.
MORE INFORMATIONThis event is logged because of a problem that occurs when the system hard disk and the second hard disk are converted to dynamic hard disks at the same time. However, the problem is resolved after both volumes are mounted when you restart your computer. Both of the hard disks are successfully converted to dynamic hard disks, and you can safely ignore the event that is logged.
