Hey my computers primary drive really sucked and had only 80 GB so I added a 250 GB hard drive to it. The second hard drive works fine just is there anyway I could some how add it to extend the C drive so they could be read as 1 giant drive? It would make things a lot easier. Right now it is empty.
Hi.
I would think using the second HD as a logical Partition would be a good place for backups and placing your photos, music etc. on to keep C drive more manageable.
Yes but my C drive is very small and my D drive is at least 5 times bigger so If I could some how switch or extend them on to 1 drive that would be much better.
Not sure if or how to extend the HDD to have a logical partition that spanes both of them...unless there is a way to RAID it like that
As for switching it over you would need a program called Ghost or a equivalent as just copying over the files outright will not work for a OS partition
But I would recommended just keeping your 80GB for the OS and using your bigger HDD for your files.
Gah alright I guess, any chance you guys know how to put steam onto the D drive?
Shippage, hi, How have you set up the 250GB drive, different partitions for music, documents etc. is a good way to go. I should have said extended partition.
have you a partition manager, eg. Acronis.
Disk Director?
did you move from an IDE to a SATA drive
