baggi,

Great! I suppose that will ease things for you.

I took a look at my PC (using Windows XP SP3) and saw the same (thanks for that tip--filed for future reference). I have three (HDDs) installed of variable sizes with a total of five logical drives and it would appear that such an approach is feasible under XP, too. I don't want to tweak the partitioning right now (all have "healthy" status reports) but I may choose to do so in the future.

Cheers, too!
