How to manage the disk volumes of your Windows 10 cloud server
All our Cloud servers with Windows 10 operating system have a customized disk partitioning structure so that, once you have created your Cloud Windows server, you can easily decide whether you want your O.S. to have a single disk volume C:/ or also a second disk volume E:/.
Below, we explain, for each version of the Windows Operating System available for your Cloud, the two methods for your server to have a single disk volume C:/ or two disk volumes C:/ + E:/
Windows 10 Professional and Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC
The original 80GB disk structure of your Windows 10 Cloud server is as follows:
A) Server with single disk volume C:/
- Press the Windows + R keys to open Run, type diskmgmt.msc and press the Enter key.
- Once the Windows Disk Manager is open, place the mouse over the C: drive, right click on the drive and in the menu click on the option Spread Volume...
- In the wizard for extending volumes click on the Next > button
- In the "Select disks" window click on the Next > button.
- In the next window click on the Finish > button.
- Then you can see how the disk volume C:/ has been extended and occupies all the available disk space of your Cloud server.
B) Server with one disk volume C:/ and a second disk volume E:/
- Press the Windows + R keys to open Run, type diskmgmt.msc and press the Enter key.
- Once the Windows Disk Manager is open, place the mouse over the unallocated disk space, right click on it and in the menu click on the New Simple Volume... option
- In the new simple volume wizard click on the Next > button
- In the "Specify volume size" window click on the Next > button.
- In the window for "Assign drive letter..." click on the Next > button.
