I installed a 120gb SSD drive into my computer. When I cloned it it made 2 partitions and left some space unallocated. I would like to combine these if possible.

f: is the active partition. But the windows system is on c:

Hi,
Yes, you can reclaim that unallocated space and add to your existing C: drive if you wish. We've had this question several times, and if you use the Search box on this forum at the top, upper-right and put it "COMBINE PARTITIONS", you will see a bunch of them. One of them we did back in December of last year (2016) was a very good one, as I posted a good Video on how you can do this a couple of different ways. We then had discussions of more advanced methods using built in Windows utilities and then moved onto various 3rd party utilities including EasyBCD; a very useful free program for doing this. This Post will give you a variety of ways to accomplish your goal of reclaiming that unallocated...
