Consolidating Disk Partitions in a Windows XP to Windows 7 Migration

Recommended Posts

We have windows xp workstations that have roughly 40GB on the C: drive and the D: drive around 100GB.

 

When migarting to win 7 we are only having one large partiton and no longer a C: and D: like on the XP Machines.

 

If my D: drive is filled with 80GB of data and my c: drive isnt even that large to copy all data over to C: how do i grab all user date from c: and D: and save if for the hardlink. to migrate to windows 7 and restore all data back to C:.

i havnt tried this but you might want to consider shrinking or extending one of the partitions to fill the other one via diskpart commands or using the disk administrator
