Expanding the C:\ Drive Partition on Windows 2003 Server

Asked by Jarrod731 in Disk Partition Tools, Hard Drives & Storage, Windows 2003 Server

Tags: , , , , , ,

My Windows 2003 Server Standard server is running out of C:\drive space.  I've been told by Dell that I can expand the space by adding an additional harddrive(s) to my RAID array, which I've done.  But, this doesn't expand my C:\ drive, so I'd need to reformat entirely and reinstall/restore (scary) or use a 3rd party application or utility (uncharted territory for me).  I have plenty of space on my D:\ drive for now, it's the primary operating system C:\ drive partition that I need to address.  Any suggestions? Words of wisdom? Application recommendations?
