XP Hard Drive Upgrade

OK. Popped in my new 120GB hard drive in master position where my DVD-ROM drive is (turned off temporaily for this), and resized and formatted the drive in half. So, I have one big hard drive with two large partitions. I am copying two of my other partitions to these new patitions. Once done I will resize my C drive to take up the whole 27GB disk, so there will be plenty of breathing room for XP. After that I will reassign drive letters, so everything will be working as it's suppose to. Then I will yank my other 27GB drive for use in another system.

So far, so good.

That sure is a lot of space... what do you need it for? :)

Right now I'm in the middle of merging partions for the C drive, which is taking FOREVER. And it's SO slow. It's like watching water boil.

I'm out of space on my C drive. I only had 200MB left on my C partion, so I am merging now.

Remember, I need the space for 2D and 3D design. Plus I do photoeditting, and video editing.

OH... and I primarily pc game. So, some games now are like over 1GB installs.
