Reclaim partition space on SATA disk, WS2003


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a client with three logical partitions on a single SATA disk. The

original OS partition (C:) is 10 GB and is getting full. I'm planning to

install a new disk and move the data on one of the logical partitions (E:)

to the new disk. I'd like to reclaim the space in the emptied partition

(E:) and make it part of C. I can't seem to find a software utility (e.g.

Partition Magic) that supports such operations on SATA disks in Windows

Server 2003.

 

Anyone got a recommendation?

 

TIA.

AFAIK, Acronis Disk Director (Server) supports SATA disks. I would download

& test the free trial version -
