[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1948096, member: 396914"] Erase the drive and start over. Of course, that action would delete everything in both partitions, so move them to some other drive before you do that, then copy back what you want in each partition. There may be some third party software that will do a dynamic resizing of partitions, but I suspect that it won't be free. And that it will still require you to move data off the drive to preserve it through the process. BTW, I think your post has an arithmetic error. You say this is a 2TB drive, and that is what the images of DU show. But you said three times that the larger partition was over 2TB. I think you meant 1.3 and you want to get to 1.8TB. Or maybe I misunderstand what you are trying to do? [/QUOTE]
