4. Specify the size of the new volume. This size cannot be less than the size of data on the original

volume. For a basic volume, you can increase its size only by taking unallocated space that is

adjacent to it.

5. In the volume layout diagram at the bottom of the window, you can specify the space that the

volume will occupy on each of the selected disks, by typing the sizes or by dragging the sliders.

6. Click Finish to add the pending volume moving operation.

The results of the pending operation are immediately displayed as if the operation had been

performed.

To perform the pending operation you will have to commit it (p. 24). Exiting the program without

committing the pending operations will effectively cancel them.

Moving system, boot, and active volumes

Important: Do not move any of these volumes unless you absolutely need to. If you want to transfer your

system to a new hard disk, consider disk cloning instead—see Basic disk cloning (p. 55).

The machine or its operating system will not always remain bootable after you move such volume. To

preserve bootability, follow these guidelines:

 If the volume is system or active (that is, the volume from which the machine starts), you should

move it only if it is located on a basic disk; move it only within that basic disk.

 If the volume is a boot volume (that is, the volume from which one of the installed Windows

operating systems starts), you should move it only when it is located on a basic disk; move it to

the same or a different basic disk.

A reboot is required when you move the boot volume of the currently running Windows operating

system, the system volume, or the active volume.

6.5 Merging basic volumes

This operation lets you merge two adjacent basic volumes, even if their file systems are different. All

data will remain intact and reside on the resultant volume. The resultant volume will have the same

label, letter and file system as the main volume—that is, the volume to which data from the other

volume will be added.

Free space requirements. The combined amount of free space on the main volume and on the other

volume must be at least 5 percent of the size of data on the other volume. For example, if files and

folders on the other volume occupy 100 GB, you need a combined total of 5 GB of free space, for

example 2 GB on one volume and 3 GB on another.

Caution: Volumes that contain encrypted files cannot be merged.

To merge basic volumes

1. Right-click the volume that you need to be merged, and then click Merge volume.

2. Select another volume you need to merge.

In Main volumes, specify which one of the selected volumes will be considered as a main. Data

from the other volume will be added to a separate folder on the main volume. This folder will be

named according to the volume label and volume letter (if present); for example: Merged

Volume 'System' (C)

3. Click OK to add the pending volumes merging operation.
