Utilize 2003 "Partition capacity" function _windows2003

Partitioning is the way to add extra space for a partition when the space is not enough to meet the needs of the application. Many friends encounter this situation, the general use of PartitionMagic completed. In practice, however, users with Windows Xp/server 2003 can use the system's built-in disk management capabilities to complete the partition's space "increase capacity." Here are some examples of how to explore.

　　 First, set free space
　　
Suppose you now need to increase the space of 50MB for D disk, this space needs to be extracted from the E disk. The first thing to do is to divide the 50MB space from the E disk. The process of this operation is as follows:

Start the Disk Management window by transferring all the data from E disk to another partition, and then clicking start → run, enter diskmgmt.msc, and then return. Select the E disk and right-click and select "Delete this logical drive" from the shortcut menu that pops up. Click the Yes button in the pop-up prompt to continue. After the operation is complete, you will receive the same amount of free space in the disk 0 column as the deletion partition.

　　 Second, to increase the capacity of the zoning

Note that at this point the D disk is 855MB, and now we're going to add 50MB to it. Click start → programs → attachments → command prompt, and in the open window, enter "Diskpart", "List volume", "Select Volume 2", "Extend size=50" four commands.

Where the "Diskpart" command is used to invoke the DOS Disk Management program, "diskpart/?" command can see the Chinese help for this command under DOS. The "List Volume" is used to display the details of all the disks on the system, so that you know the volume number of the partition you want to expand. Here you can see that the D disk is "2"; the Select Volume 2 command is used to select volumes, where the volume 2 is selected according to the prompts given in the previous step, and "Extend size=50" is used to increase the capacity of D disk space, which is of course the space of freedom to divide. From the result of the command execution, "DiskPart successfully expanded the volume," We have succeeded in expanding space for D, as shown in the figure.

Finally, in the Disk Management window, select the remaining free space, click the "operations → all tasks → new logical drive" command, according to the prompts for the space assigned drive letter and format operation.
