  2. Unable to allocate memory on hard drive with error message: "No space available"

    To mirror the drive I used an Apricorn USB adapter to externally mirror to an internal hard drive. In the Disk Management, I see an unallocated partition, which is about half the drives size, my C: drive, and three 'healthy' partitions. I was attempting
    to allocate more memory through the Disk Management, then I saw online that you can do it through CMD, so I tried that, which gave the error that it was an invalid process. The program to mirror is "
    EZ Gig IV Cloning Software with Data Select for Windows" when attempting to use Disk Management to allocate the memory it gives the error "There is not enough space available on the disk to complete this operation." This error is
    still given after reducing the size by half.

    Disk 1 is an external Hard Drive and Disk 0 is the cloned Hard drive.

    disk space reduced after media creation tool

    Hi Sarah,

    One of the possible reasons why your disk space was reduced is due to an unallocated disk space on your partitions. For us to isolate your concern, we suggest that you check your device's partition. To do this, follow the steps provided below:

    • Type Computer Management on Ask me anything and press
      Enter.
    • Select Storage and click on Disk Management.
    • Send us a screenshot.
    We look forward to your response.

    Reduce disk size (Inspect SCSI )

    Hi, I'm David an independent advisor and user just like you. I'll do my best to help you with this.

    The answer is you have to reduce the size on BOTH sides.

    Step 1) Within you virtual machine you need to go to Disk Management and reduce the size of the partition(s) on the drive you want to reduce - you want to end up with space left at the "end" of the virtual disk. This is the space you'll be able to recover.

    Step 2) From your Hyper-V host you need to edit the virtual disk and use the Shrink option to reduce the size of the physical disk (as far as your VM is concerned it's a physical disk), and that would reduce the size of your virtual disk file on the host.

    If you are increasing the size of the virtual disk then you do it the other way round - increase the size of the virtual disk on Hyper-V, then go to Disk Management inside your virtual machine and you'll find there's more space available to expand your virtual
    volume.

    Regards,

    David
