Move partion in SBS 2003 R2
I'm running SBS 2003 R2.  This system is used for mail and data.  I have 2 partitions, C and D.  C is 8 gig and D is 452 gig.  This takes up the entire 500G drive.  I have a 2nd 500G drive mirroring the 1st drive (Raid 1).  I want to increase C to 12 gig.  Will converting to a dynamic disk solve this problem?  Or should I buy 3rd party partition program?

Partition Magic might do too but I would recommend increase c:\ drive to 20Gb.

Thanks for your inputs.  The Acronis program is $499.  I was hoping for a windows utility/command.


BootIt - i tried it before it worked on a normal server. But if the server came with a 12Gb pre-partitioned C:\ drive then it doesn't work.

There is no built in utility/command - and not many free tools that support RAID - sorry.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
