[QUOTE="rbpeirce, post: 1948660, member: 410088"] The TM partition cannot be dragged or resized. I think it has something to do with being the first partition rather than the last [second], which can be resized or dragged. I wonder if I might have been able to resize it if it was the second partition rather than the first. I really don't know the rules Apple applies to partitioning disks with Disk Utility. Can anybody point me to the docs, if they exist? I discover there is a sale on Samsung 4Tb T7 SSDs for about $250 each compared to the Seagate 5Tb HDD I am using which costs about $125. That seems like a marvelous trade-off and once I get them I can play around with partitioning BEFORE I finalize them. I will have to keep the old drives for a while in case I need to restore anything. [/QUOTE]
