Combining a split partition on a dynamic disk by altordwm2009-03-23 13:41:12
  Are they all on the same physical disk or is it by Classic_Jon2009-03-23 13:45:18
    It is a RAID 5 array, by altordwm2009-03-23 14:00:19
      I would suggest one of two methods by Classic_Jon 2009-03-23 14:13:11
and one will take some downtime and BOTH will require a seriously good backup of everything.

1) get a copy of partitionmagic and do it through that program.
or
2) Back everything up to another drive/Array blow this one away and set it up how you want it set up.

What gets me is that it has E: in two different spots in the drive manager....that is a bit odd if you ask me. Not impossible but enough to make me go ??.

Personally, I am not all about Dynamic disks. They are nice if you need them to re-partition things, but I have had better luck over time with standard disk types.
