• How can I add on my current C drive unallocated disk space?

  Recently, I removed a partition of my Win XP laptop running.  Unlike the example of how to do it, I was unable to extend the drive C partition to new disk space unallocated.  Just try to get more space program.  Already had a split of 50% between the drives C and D.  You don't want more than one partition.

  Unfortunately, you can not do with the tools built into Windows XP.  You will need a 3rd party disk management application.

  Here are a few options in alphabetical order (some free, some not):

• How expand you a healthy (C:\) partition in the unallocated disk space - used to be partitioned as D:\?

  At some point in the past, someone partitioned my hard drive in C:\ = 15 GB and D:\ = 95 GB.  It is the source of the problems. I can't afford to pay someone to fix it as I became unemployed.  SO after some research, I gutted and then deleted the partition D:\. Then I went to "diskpart" in command prompt and typed "extend", thinking that would extend the C drive in the now unallocated space that used to be the partition D:\. Got mssg "part of disk cannot extend the volume. Please make sure the volume is valid for the extension. "How do I do that?  Thank you.

  As you discovered, you can't extend the system (C) partition using tools provided with Windows.  You need a third-party disk partitioning application.

  This one is free: http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm and this one is $9.95: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/pm-personal/

• 16 GB of free disk space required to upgrade?

  I have a 80 GB drive partitioned and C: has 3 GB of spare, I would like to upgrade to windows 7, but it says I need 16 GB of free disk, Vista is already using 22 gb - if I upgrade to I win 6 GB or is windows really 38 GB because none of my partitions are that big. (E: a 22 GB of spare I put windows on both Partitions?).

  I tried to resize the two partitions by using disk management C: offers the possibility of reduction of the score but the expand option is grayed out.

  Windows 7 32-bit requires 16 GB of free disk space
  Windows 7 64-bit requires 20 GB of free space on the disk

  In fact, Windows 7 does not use that amount of space, but for the actual installation, Windows 7 will store some files temporarily to help with the installation. Disk space actually used by Windows varies from 6 to 10 GB, depending on the edition you are installing.

  You can try to free disk space by running disk clean up and remove old system restore points. You can also try clearing your temporary files directory:

  Click Start, type: folder
  Press ENTER, delete the contents of this folder.

  You should try to uninstall applications you do not use and move files you use for example videos, photos on an external hard drive, you could do temporarily, then restore them after the installation of Windows 7.

• ESXi 5 - increase the disk space

  Hello

  
  Info:

  Size of the disk hard server: 4 TB

  What are the limits on the increase in size of virtual machine disk space Windows Server? For example, if C: win2k8 is 80 GB, can I increase to say a maximum of 4000 GB (eg. only 1 VM on the host)?

  I get a new server and I would like to give the VMs small readers and increase disk space needed in the future, if necessary. How will I know how much space the augmentable drive by?

  If I start with young readers, does this mean that I won't be able to increase the disk space, as well as virtual machines with more readers?

  Thank you

  Sorry, my bad. The size of the virtual disk does not depend on the HW version, it's just 5.5 ESXi and VMFS5.

  In any case, some words of clarification:

  • You can create virtual disks with up to 16 TB, in c# Client
  • Large virtual disks > 2 TB-512Bytes (with up to 62 to 64 to no) are not officially supported in c# Client, even if this can work for drives <=16TB (see=""> vSphere 5.5 storage improvements part 1: 62 TB VMDK)
  • Note: You cannot manage VMs with HW version 10 in the c# Client.

• The partition without space unallocated disk

  Hi people, I'm using win - xp professional SP3. I want to partition my hard drive sparked doesn't have that one disk C with no unallocated space. I don't want to format or reinstall my operating system, is it possible that I can create a partition on my hard drive. I tried to reduce the disk, but there is no option of narrowing in the disk management window.

  Help on this matter is highly appreciated

  
  

  Windows XP has no native tools to do this, you need to use a third partititionneur of the to do.  Acronis, Symantec, terabyte and Easus are some of the companies that come to mind that have the tools to do this.  Free trial of TeraByte BootItNg utility to do this.

  Remember that anything can happen when you work with disk partitions and partitioning/resizing tools, a swipe of the finger, a power failure or a software problem can easily lead to a catastrophic loss of all data on the disk, make sure you have a backup of your precious files BEFORE to proceed to this!

• Windows Easy Transfer - not enough disk space

  I thought I was effective with my space of C: drive when I created a partition of 19G for Win 7 64 bit install.  Installation went well.  But now, I get an error when I try to use Windows Easy Transfer to replace the files and settings in the C: drive.  I'm getting "there is not enough available disk space to transfer your files and settings.

  I tried to extend the partition of 19G using the diskpart command line, but obviously I don't understand this thing of partition or volume.  I have 908G free on the C: drive.  Why don't Windows Easy Transfer make me do?

  You can walk me through how to get Windows Easy Transfer to use the available space?  I tried creating and formatting a volume with free space and which does not work either.  (Not shown in the screenshot.)

  Screenshots:

  

  I solved my problem and will document the answer if someone reads this thread.

  Not being warned of partition, I was really afraid of 'delete partition' given the warning message.  Once I thought logically through what would happen that I chose to delete the partition.

  Deletion of de facto partition the partition itself is no longer accessible, but it did not space reconciliations.  Once the partition has been deleted, it was labeled "unallocated" in the management of the computer-> disk management GUI.  At that time I could right click on the c: partition and choose to extend it.
