Primary and extended partition

A primary partition functions just like a separate disk: it can be used for installing an operating system.

It is possible to create one or several logical drives on an extended partition.

Logical drive

It is possible to subdivide an extended partition into several logical partitions. A logical drive is not a "real" partition,

but an area in an extended partition. A logical drive can only be created on an extended partition. An operation system

can also be installed on a logical drive. To start this, an additional boot partition has to be created as primary partition

on the disk.

Change the size of a drive

You can change the size of a partition, a volume, or a spanned volume. It's also possible to move a partition.

Change the size of a partition

To change the size of a drive, right-click the desired drive or in the menu bar on Action/All actions on the start

page of O&O PartitionManager and select Change location and size.

Adapt the drive size in the dialogue under Partition size according to the shown minimum and maximum values.

Note: Please bear in mind that you can only extend the partition by the free space available, which lies behind the

drive in the graphical drive display.

Note: We recommend choosing the option Optimize the size to a minimum, before shrinking your drive. Opti-

mizing can take some time, depending on the size of the partition.
