Guest pc Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 Hi, I want to create a software mirror using the Disk Management snap-in but have have encountered the following issue: I have 2 identical 160Gb PATA drives. My C: drive has a partition on it, therefore I seem to be unable to mirror it using windows Disk Management. When I right click on the boot volume, add mirror is grayed out I am also unable to extend the boot partition to the second partition on Disk 0 (C:) as this is a dynamic disk so I cannot extend the boot partition using Partition Magic. Help! Cheers, eddiec
