Resize drives on a server.

[marktwayne]

I work for a small non-profit tutoring center that operates mostly by charity. The server runs Windows 2003 and has one 300 GB drive. Only 12 GB of that was original allocated to the C drive and the rest was allocated to a data drive. The C-drive has run out of space.

I would like to be able to change the sizes of the drives without losing any data. My budget is under $100 if I need to buy software. Any suggestions?

you dont need to buy any special software. boot off of an ubuntu or fedora live CD and then you can resize the partitions with gparted.

I downloaded and created an Ubuntu CD. It let me change the sizes of the non-boot partitions, but it is not letting me make my boot partition any larger. I also tried the Unbuntu application gparted.

Partition Assistant Lite did do everything I needed.
