But I use Acronis Disc Director Boot Disk to partition the hard disks and still can't get rid of that little 1 mb bit. I wonder why?

Whenever you use a Windows utility to format a hard drive Windows will always leave some little chunk of unallocated space at the end of the drive. This is because Windows wants to use that little bit of real estate when creating Dynamic Disks.
Third party programs will allow you to format the entire drive because other OS's do not need or use that space.

I just bought a 4TB hard drive to replace my old one which was damaged. However it only allows me to partition 2TB and leaves the remaining 1.64TB as unallocated. I've tried easeus but it does not allow me to do anything with the unallocated space. I want to create 3 partitions with that...
Hi,
I'm using Windows 7 and I've just purchased a new 3TB internal hard drive. I went to Computer Management to format the drive, but it will only allow me to access 2048GB. There is 746.52GB of unallocated space. When I right click on the larger part which I've formatted, "Extend Volume..." was...

I have a 5610Z Acer Aspire with Windows 7 (32 bit). I pulled a very boneheaded move getting to upgrade from Vista.
I deleted my D:drive (50 G). I back up to a 500 G external hard drive. Is there a way to add the 59G to C:drive where I could use the space.
Thanks
