Registering Folder Issue

[AliceWilson]

I am running ArcGIS Server 10.1 on a new virtual Windows 2012 server. I have partitioned part of the hard drive to put the data on including my imagery files. I tried to register the folders some of the data so it is not copied and I get an error invalid folder location unable to access location.
It works fine when I created a test folder ont he C drive but wont work on my e drive - set all permissions etc just no clue why it wont see the folder and access it.

I guess you can create/add/delete files and folders in windows explorer on the E drive yeah? A couple of other things i would try is give the arcgis user read/write permissions on the E drive, setup a share on the E drive and use that to register the folder.

One suggestion is to literally log on the VM using the "arcgis" account which is the account that ArcGIS Server runs as.

Do you see the E drive after doing this?  Can you read/write files on it?
