Solved

Hello,
I bought an Asus G550JK laptop two months ago. This laptop has two internal hard drives: OS (C:) (372GB) and Data (D:) (537GB).
The C: drive is almost full, and I would like to merge it with D: to get a single hard drive of 909GB instead of two separate drives.
I hope you understand me and that you can help me.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Zarum.

    I'm not sure if it's a good idea... You can move your documents to the other drive (or your images, music, etc.)

    Press the Windows key (flag) + R, type %UserProfile%, right-click on "My Documents", in the location tab, choose the location

    Otherwise, to merge, the second drive must be empty.

    Start menu --> right-click on Computer --> Manage
    Go to Storage --> Disk Management
    Right-click on drive D, delete the volume
    Then right-click on drive C and select Extend Volume

    Hope this helps you.

      Thank you, but I have another problem: when I right-click on This PC and click on Manage, nothing happens (I am using Windows 8.1).

      Thank you very much, it's all good, I was able to open the management by typing %windir%\system32\compmgmt.msc /s in Start --> run and I was able to merge my two drives after emptying D.
      Once again, thank you.
      Best regards,
      Zarum
