Unallocated Space Question

Hi, actually it's a question about Win7: my hard disk has no data, just
three arias of Unallocated Space. Is there any way of merging them in one
unallocated space like on a new hard disk? Now, each time I try to do
something with these arias, options Delete, Extend get unavailable.



Thanks in advance,

AK

Hi,

To merge them, they must be contiguous. If there are volumes in between
them, you will need third-party tools to slide the existing volumes around
so that they are. The drive tools included with Win7 do not offer that
capability.

====================
Maybe the following freeware would be worth a try:
