1488860 2022-10-12 19:00:00 I am using a UEFI board and have noticed (Aomei Partition Assistant) that the first partition has 829mb capacity and has used 823mb. Only 4mb left. Have I got a worry here or will the system take care of it? Can I increase the size of the partition? Bryan (147)
1488861 2022-10-12 20:23:00 I am using a UEFI board and have noticed (Aomei Partition Assistant) that the first partition has 829mb capacity and has used 823mb. Only 4mb left. Have I got a worry here or will the system take care of it? Can I increase the size of the partition? If its the 1st Partition, ignore it, its part of the recovery system, the others will be boot partitions a reserved partition the OS uses and sometimes a system where encryption information is stored. No need to increase its size as you shouldn't be storing anything on it anyway. Then theres your C Drive. wainuitech (129)

No more data would be able to be written to it.

1488864 2022-10-13 01:07:00 Ta. I just wondered what would happen if it did run out of space. The recovery a partition for example, if it needs more space due to upgrades, new files etc it steals it from the C drive as required and expands. Normally though is so small you don't even notice. AND if its that tight or in need of space then really its either a larger or additional Storage drive. wainuitech (129)
1488865 2022-10-13 01:35:00 There's plenty of free space on C: so I now have no concerns. Thanks, Bryan. Bryan (147)
