What is the status/size/available of the SCSI drive?

Theres 2300 mb free space. I could take about 500 mb from the primary partition there as well. It's a 4.3 gig drive.

How much room do you need?

Thats the big question. This is what I can remember. Primary partition w98nto = 1 or 2 gig say 1 gig used; logical DI archive #1 = 2 gig and is full; DI archive #2 =2 gig but no more than half full; and an alternate EOD data storage = 1 gig but only about 300? mb used.

So total partitions take about 7 gig. Used space roughly 4-5 gig

The only drive with that kind of free space is the ROMO. Let me check on resizing that and I'll be right back

not clear as to whether or not resizing NTFS is an option

Resize/move is greyed out for NTFS partition.

The Romo drive only has a couple of weeks of backup on it and I do have two of them. Why not take the least current of the two and reformat, creating a, say, 6 gig FAT 16 partition on it and use that. If size becomes a problem then well we'll think of something else and I would have lost 1 of 2 copies of 2 wk backup. What do ya think? I don't see an option.
