Transfering from small HD to larger

<< < (2/2)

RiffRaff:
I have a 114gig drive and a 300 gig drive, I transferred the contents of the 114gig drive to the 300, now the 300 says it's the 114 gig hard driive???
I used Maxtor Maxblast and it worked really smooth, but I lost a bunch of hard drive space.

Any suggestions...??

Yeah, you just need to open the rest of the drive to that partition.

You should see in disk management that only a certain amount of the hard drive is partitioned:

Start > Run > diskmgmt.msc

I forget how you expand the partition, but there is a way, play around with it. Also what OS are you on? If it's XP you are on SP2 right?
