windows 7 - Is it possible to transfer free storage space from one hard drive to another?


I have a Windows 7 and my C:// drive has a total disk size of of 50GB. My G:// and F:// drives have much disk free on each drive with 50GB minimum available.


Due to all of the programs I install, my C:// drive is almost full with only 4GB left.


Now , my question is how do I transfer that extra 50GB from the G:// and F:// drives in to the C:// drive, so I get some more space?


After doing some searching on Google I found [this] blog post titled, “Resize a Partition for Free in Windows 7, 8.x, 10, or Vista”. Will this work?


UPDATE: Okay, nevertheless, looks like I will try this quite unsafe thing some other day along with a techie. Thanks for all your help everybody.


Answer



Ever since I asked this question, I have switched over to using MiniTool partition wizard as the tool for managing my partitions. I have used it on Windows 7 multiple times without any hiccups. I did take a backup before using it though.
