    Hi.

    I tried used "Disk Management" to convert my SSD from "basic" to "dynamic".

    I receive an error of type "not enough space" (Greeks) :

    Data : SSD is 120GB and only 45GB in use (75GB free).

    Any idea ?

    Thanks.

    Thanks.

    There is not enough space at the end of the disk as it is fully consumed by partitions. This is a limitation of converting using disk management. You should be able to convert using the below tool or alternativly shrink the disk volume. More information at this link

    Hi.

    It not works. All options at "Dynamic Disk" are gray and blocked.

    Thanks.
