[QUOTE="voyager, post: 745385, member: 40107"] I am in the process of cleaning and neatening up my PC. My PC has 6 drives: (C:) - Primary - M.2 - 1TB O.S. Drive - 3 Win Install partitions (D:) - Primary - SSD - 1TB Installation Drive - 1 Partition (E:) - Primary - HDD - 2TB Data Drive - 1 Partition (F:) - Primary - HDD - 2TB Data Drive - 1 Partition (G:) - Primary - HDD - 4TB Data Drive - 1 Partition (H:) - Logical - HDD - 2TB Data Drive - 1 Partition C: & D: need to be Primary & Active because of the OS and installed applications. My conceen is with drives (E:), (F:) and (G:). They're DATA drives and have no need to be active primary drives or partitions. I would like to convert them to being logical, but worry about DATA loss. Can they be converted to logical without DATA loss?[ATTACH type="full"]39629[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
