SLA IT Training - How to Convert a Basic Disk to a Dynamic Disk?

sla kk nagar complaints





All disks are basic disks by default. When you need to take advantage of the functionality that dynamic disks provide, you must convert the basic disks to dynamic disks. You can convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk without losing existing data.

For the conversion to be successful there must be atleast 1 MB of free unpartitioned space available on the basic disk. This 1 MB is necessary to store the dynamic disk database, which tracks the configuration of all dynamic disks in the computer. If Windows XP professional created the existing partitions, it will have automatically reserved the 1 MB of space required for conversion. If another operating system or a third-party utility program created the partitions prior to upgrading, there is a chance that no free space is available. In that case, you will likely have to repartition the drive so that 1 MB of space is reserved as blank space.

During the conversion, all primary and extended partitions become simple dynamic volumes, and the disk will join the local disk group and receive a copy of the dynamic database.
