Extending a Dynamic Simple or Spanned Volume
You can extend a volume only if the following are true:
• The volume is formatted as NTFS.
• The volume was originally created on a dynamic disk.
• There is unallocated space on a dynamic disk onto which volume can be extended.
You cannot extend a volume if any of the following are true:
• The volume is formatted as FAT or FAT32.
• The volume is using software RAID (striped, mirrored, or RAID 5 volume).
• There is no unallocated space available on a dynamic disk.
You can extend simple and spanned volumes on dynamic disks onto a maximum of 32
dynamic disks. After a volume is extended, it cannot be mirrored or striped using software
RAID. No portion of a spanned volume can be deleted without deleting the entire spanned
volume.
