5.2 Resizing a volume

This operation extends a volume—whether basic or dynamic—by taking unallocated space from one

or more disks; or reduces a volume so that a portion of the volume’s free space becomes unallocated

space.

Extending a basic volume. A basic volume occupies a single region on a single basic disk. When you

extend a basic volume, you can choose to leave the disk as basic and use only the unallocated space

that is adjacent to the volume. Alternatively, you can choose to convert the disk to dynamic and use

unallocated space from all dynamic disks on your machine. In the second case, the volume will

become a simple or spanned volume.

Resizing a volume from which the machine or an operating system starts. You can resize the system

volume, a boot volume, or the active volume only when it is a basic volume.

To resize a volume

1. Select the volume that you want to resize, and then click Resize volume.

2. Specify the new size of the volume, by typing it or by moving the slider.

3. When resizing a basic volume:

 To be able to use only unallocated space that is adjacent to the volume, click Leave the

volume as basic. The volume will remain a basic volume.

 To be able to use unallocated space from all dynamic disks on the machine, click Convert the

volume to simple/spanned. The volume will be converted to a simple or spanned volume,

and the corresponding disk will become dynamic.

Note: This option is not available if the volume is the system volume, a boot volume, or the active

volume.

If you choose the Leave the volume as basic option, the following options are available:

 Append all unallocated disk space to the volume

With this option, all unallocated space on the disk will become adjacent to the volume that

you are resizing. This may involve relocating other volumes within the disk.

As a result you will be able to extend the volume by using all unallocated space, including the

unallocated space that is not currently adjacent to the volume, while keeping the disk as a

basic disk.

When this check box is selected, the following option is available:

 Take free space from other volumes

With this option, other volumes on the disk will be reduced so that only a specified

percentage of the corresponding current free space will remain on each of those

volumes.

As a result you will get additional unallocated space, which will be adjacent to the

volume that you are resizing.

By default, this option does not apply to the boot volumes on the disk. To include these

volumes, select the Use free space on boot volumes check box.

4. Examine how the resized volume will be located on the disk or disks, by using the preview area at

the bottom of the window.

5. Click OK to add the pending volume resizing operation.

The results of the pending operation are immediately displayed as if the operation was performed.
