Windows Central Question

I have two drives, an ssd and a regular drive. While using Microsoft's upgrade assistant tool it failed to bring the secondary drive online. This showed up as un allocated.

The only thing I could do was format the drive. Fortunately I had a backup to recover, but I was never warned that I could lose my data on my secondary drive.

Have you guys used this tool? and have you seen anything like this?

it's always recommended to do a backup right before a major update like the anniversary update. Just in case :-)
