During the install of SQL 2012 Std on WinSrv 2012 Std, at the "Database Engine Confirguration" step, on the "Data Directories" tab I AM able to see/browse to all local disks.
After installation, in the "Database default locations" of the Server Properties I am only able to see C: drive, and the same when trying to attach a database. Machine is in a domain, install and config being done using the Domain Admin acc.
So, if I do NOT change the defaults during install, I cannot select any other disk afterwards.
If I DO change the defaults (to any other drive), trying to create a new database results in a 5133 error.
