500GB SATAII 7,200RPM - space problem.

[Jerry08]

Help regarding this hard drive. I've had it for two years now and until now it's showing that out of the 500GB it should have, when I give properties to my C:/ drive it only shows 250GB, which limits me some space. One day I took it for cleaning and thought they had changed the hard drive, but I opened it personally and it's exactly the same. Could you please help me?

Thanks for the answer, but I already had a program that would identify my hard drive, even so I also checked it as I said, personally. Speccy - Fast and effective

But the answer already resolved it.

There is a program called Partition Magic if you want to make it easy, but I did it manually.

The problem was that I had half of the hard drive as ''unallocated'' that is: that part of my hard drive was not enabled, with a right click on the ''unallocated'' disk and I created a new volume to have my other 250 GB available, I can also extend my other 250 GB so that they are combined into one drive. 500GB freed up.

Thanks anyway. Any comments you want to tell me.
