How Do I Expand the Capacity of a Windows System Disk After the Migration?

If a source server disk is smaller than the target server disk, there will be unallocated space left over on the target server disk. You can expand the system disk of the target server to take advantage of the unallocated space.

1. Choose Start > Run.
2. Enter diskmgmt.msc and press Enter.

   The Disk Management dialog box is displayed.

3. Right-click partition (C:) and choose Expand Volume.
