I am running Windows 10 Pro and I cloned (disk-to-disk) my 120GB SSD drive to a larger 2TB SATA drive because I was running out of disk space on the 120GB. I used Clonezilla and everything finished successfully.
After cloning, I removed the 120GB SSD drive and booted from the 2TB SATA drive Windows loaded successfully, but in File Explorer, it show that the C: drive is still 120GB and the new 2TB is not shown.
In Disk Management however, the new drive is shown with 4 partitions: 100MB System Reserved, 120GB (C:), 450MB Recovery Partition and 1751GB Unallocated.
How can I increase the size of Drive C:?
Answer
The remaining GB (difference between 120gb and 2TB) of your hard drive are free and must be manually assigned to a new partition or assigned to drive C (Resize the partition)
You can do it manually. In Windows, go to Computer Management and Extend disk space. If you do not want to do it manually you can use applications like AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard, GParted, etc.
