BJG Posted September 27, 2013 Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) One of our Windows 2008 Servers was set up with a 50GB C:\ drive (?) and has only a pitiful amount of free space. I'm wondering whether to convert to dynamic for resizing...any potential problems there...? Edited September 27, 2013 by BJG
box_l Posted September 27, 2013 Posted September 27, 2013 I steer clear of dynamic disks at all costs. Can you tidy up the winsxs folder How to address disk space issues that are caused by a large Windows component store (WinSxS) directory BoX 1
AngryTechnician Posted September 27, 2013 Posted September 27, 2013 Agree, dynamic disks are the spawn of Satan. Avoid at all costs. It's been a while since I've had to bugger about with resizing physical disk partitions since all of our servers are virtualised, but in the past I used to use something like Acronis to take a full disk image, then alter the partition sizes when restoring the image. Also, find whoever gave you a silly C: drive in the first place and hit them with something heavy. 1
