      Extend a Volume to Fill an Expanded Drive

      This article details the steps necessary to extend an existing partition on a drive to fill newly-added space.

      Problem

      After adding drives to an array, or expanding a Games or System image by adding additional space, the additional space is not displayed in Windows.

      Solution

      1. Click the Start Button, type "Disk Management", then click the "Create and format hard disk partition" Control panel in the "Best match" category to launch the "Disk Management" snap-in.

         

         

      2. Within the "Disk Management" snap-in, locate a disk which shows unallocated space. This is a drive that needs to be expanded.

         

         

      3. Within the "Disk Management" snap-in, locate the partition to the left of the unallocated space. This is the partition within the drive that needs to be expanded.
