    My Y480 had a bad hd and Lenovo sent me a replacement. I ran into a situation where the replacement hd had a partition different than my original not allowing me to restore with Acronis TI. As a result, I "added disk" using Acronis deleting partitions but wasn't sure on the original set-up. Can anyone with 209386U or 209387U help me out? (Other model information may help...)

    Click on windows icon, right click on computer and select manage. Select disk management on the left and take snapshot or transcribe what you see:

    For example--
    Disk 0: 200mb partition and 19.53
    Disk 1: 917.2gb partition and 24.41gb partition

    ...or something like that. Snapshot would be best! Thnx!!!
