How can I prevent hard drive from becoming a dynamic disk?

[DarkEnergy]

So I tried installing a linux distro on my 1tb hard drive (this hard drive does not have my windows installation on it), and it never installed right. Whenever I rebooted, grub didn't appear, it just booted right to windows. Anyway, so now I have a large partition and now a big chunk of free space (I deleted the partitions containing the linux install.) However, if I try to extend the partition I want extended, it says it will become a dynamic disk which I do not want. My current partitions:

Not too sure why it says "Free space" whereas normally it would say "Unallocated space" correct? I know if it's unallocated that it would allow you to expand to a basic disk.

There is a solution here:

Basically, right click on the "Free Space" and delete the partition, this should set it to "Unallocated" alllowing you to extend the other partition.
