It really depends on where you have the extra room. Without getting too technical, you shrink a drive that has room. Then move drives about until the extra room is beside the area you wish to increase. This requires lots of patience and prayer (if you are on good terms). Then you add the space to the drive you wish to increase. Note: The drives must be on the same physical drive. It is usually easier to add another drive (external) shove a heap of non critical and or backups onto the external drive.

There are many programs about to make it easier but would you trust them.

I recently ran out of C drive space which I had set to 200gig (thinking I’d never use it). My solution was to replace the C drive with a 512gig SSD drive. I was then able to use some of the extra 200gig freed up, though I didn’t need it. It was easier and more time efficient than moving drives about and possibly losing vital stuff.

A lot of people have stuff such as pictures, downloads, audio files etc sitting on a C drive. If this is the case move it. For example, I have my BB folder on my C drive (now I have the spare room) but my RealTracks and RealDrums live on another drive. Even BB and RB live and run quite happily from drives other than the C drive.

My Sonar files and Audio stuff on another drive. Reaper renders etc somewhere else. I name my drives to suit.

My thoughts
