Partition Help

[beanhubbleday]

Hi all,

 

Can someone please help me merge the (D:) and the unallocated?

I've tried to extend the D: volume and it says 'There is not enough space on the disk to complete this operation'

 

Please somebody help me - because I currently have 220GB of HDD unusabele as I also can't amake the unallocated volume into a simple volume as it says 'the size of the extent is less than the minimum'

 

HALP!!!

Already tried it

easeus partition magic

The trial should do the trick, i know it might look a bit weird but it does work as it should.

 

I've used it multiple times in the past and it never let me down, some operations take a while but that's about it.

 

edit: it is a bit risky but the issue is that there is a partition between the unallocated part and D:

What you should do is move that partition somewhere else so the unallocated hdd and the D: partition are next to each other.

it is just an recovery partition.

i always remove that partition, but, i would not recommend that

May I know which feature you tried, merge partitions or resize partition?

I had to convert my basic disk to a dynamic disk, or vice versa I don't remember - it was on the non-default one, using another piece of AOMEI software which I forget the name of. Then I was able to merge the partitions into one including the recovery ones.
