Hey guys,

So I have a 256 gb ssd with a 40gb partition and the rest is on a different partition. I also have a WD 1Tb drive. The SSD OS partition is full so now I have everything downloading from chrome to the WD drive. So 3D mark installed to the WD drive but to finish installing it wants an install location. The OS partition is full which is where it wants to put it and when i try to have it download to the other partitions/ drives it says that they are full. I have no idea what to do, can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Jack

Possibly this from EaseUS

And as always, have anything critical backed up elsewhere before messing with partitions.

This is why partitioning is usually not a great idea. Whatever partition you're trying to use will, at that moment, be too small.
40GB for the OS is too small.

Does the application give you the option of where to install it? Most do.

Yes it does, but then when i try to install it to the different location it says that the drive I'm installing it to is full even when i choose the correct path to a different drive.
