    Unallocated Space to C Drive

    Hi Travis,

    It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

    • In Disk Management, right-click on (CAdditional SSD as an Unallocated Partition? :) which appears next to the
      Unallocated partition.
    • Select Extend.

    Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

    Regards.

    Additional SSD as an Unallocated Partition?

    Merging three unallocated partitions into one.

    I followed these steps but I do not get the option to extend the volume only to shrink it as the extend option is gray.
