Then, what can you do when Diskpart failed to extend partition? Resize disk partition with partition magic Another choice is to rely on professional partition magic to resize hard disk. Compared with Diskpart command, partition magic provides a much easier way to perform partition resizing. What is more important, partition magic has no limitation to help resize disk and reallocate disk space.
Diskpart is also available on Windows Server 64 bit to extend a volume, but it has the same limitations as what mentioned above. In addition to Diskpart command, Windows Server Disk Management also allows its users to perform partition resizing.
You can open Disk Management and select a partition that has much free space. Then, you can select "Shrink Volume"; option to squeeze some unallocated space first of all. Then, you can right click another partition and choose "Extend Volume" option to add the unallocated space to it.
It sounds good, but Disk Management also has limitation that it only allows you to extend the partition when there is adjacent unallocated space. In another word, you can only extend the partition which is beside the unallocated space. If both Diskpart and Disk Management cannot help resize partition, the final choice is to use the professional partition software. Many people find that lots of software cannot be compatible with Windows Server 64 bit.
