    Moving Unallocated Disk Space to End of Disk


    In preparation of installing an Intel Optane Memory Module one of the requirements(see attached requirements) is to have an unallocated space of at least 5MB at the end of the disk.
    Currently I have 550MB of unallocated space on the drive I will be using the Intel Optane Memory Module for but its at the front of the disk(see attached Disk Management Screen Shot) and not the end. Is there a way to simply move the unallocated space from the front of the disk to the end?

    :)

  2. Unallocated spaces at the begining and the end of the Disk?!

    Oops! i thought they're just 2 partitions and Windows made them Unallocated someway somehow!

    Yeah i can't delete Unallocated space, what i meant was deleting Partition D:\ so its space would be merged with the 839KB at the end of the Disk, then creating a new Partition of the whole space. So these Unallocated spaces at the begining and the end are
    GPT related? Actually this is my first experience using GPT Disks, and i have never encountered such a thing with MBR.

  3. Unallocated spaces at the begining and the end of the Disk?!

    Hello,

    I got a new 4TB Hard drive and have decided to make it the Boot drive with Windows 10, so i did a clean install of Version 1511 (Build 10586) via a USB Stick and Partitioned my new Hard drive during the Setup through a
    Custom Installation process, it created 3 hidden system Partitions: a
    450MB "Recovery" Partition, a 100MB "System" Partition, and a
    16MB "MSR Reserved" Partition. These 3 system Partitions are familiar to me and i have a slight knowledge about them.

    However, when i Boot to my other Hard drive (MBR with Windows 7) i loaded up EaseUS Partition Master software, it shows
    2 Unallocated spaces: a 1MB Unallocated space at the beginning of the Disk (for BitLocker i believe. Correct me if i'm wrong), and a
    839KB Unallocated space at the end of the Disk.

    Note: These are only showing on Partition Master software, and do not appear on windows Disk Management utility.

    I don't know what are these Unallocated spaces for, Do they should exist or not? i'm looking for some information about them.

    Any help is much appreciated!
