Hi,
Just a quick one (hopefully).
Is it possible to merge 2 partitions on seperate HDDs together?
I currently have a 300GB partition on a HDD and want to add another unallocated partition on a seperate HDD in order to extend the 300GB partition.
I don't want to have to remove or move any data around but could do if this was the only option.
Any suggestions/ideas would be a great help, this sounds like a simple problem but I'm struggling to find a solution.
Many thanks

Spanning partitions across disks is possible but only certain editions of Windows support Dynamic Disks which are a pre-req for spanning. Even then I'm not sure if you can do it while retaining the data.

The easiest option is to mount the second partition as a path within the first one. This can be done easily in Disk Management.
