Exercise 2.5
Working with Dynamic Disks
Overview

Alice currently has five partitions on her basic disk: three primary partitions and one extended partition with two logical drives. She has found it difficult to manage her files with so many partitions, so she wants to consolidate the disk into just three volumes – her original two plus one large data volume – that will be part of a striped volume.

In exercise 2.5 you are going to prepare for the upgrade by converting the basic disk to a dynamic disk and consolidating the partitions. Alice has already copied all of her files from the Alice2 and Alice3 volumes to Alice1.
