    How to Move Fee Space to Non-Adjacent Partition

    Hi,
    I have a RAID 0 four HDD system, of 4 x 4TB size.
    And it has a total of 6 partitions.

    I'm using High Sierra.
    And is formatted as NTFS.

    Is there any way I can move some Free Space I created to a Partition that is NOT adjacent to it?

    For example, if I have Partitions A, B, C, D and E.
    And they are seen by Paragon HDM as follows:
    A....free space.....B......C......D......E

    If I want the free space to be added to "E", what is most efficient way to do it?

    At moment, I can only see FOUR operations, all of which take something like 6 to 8 hours to run:

    A....free space.....B......C......D......E
    to
    A....B......free space....C......D......E

    Then to:
    A....B......C......free space....D......E

    Then to:
    A....B.....C......D.....free space.......E

    Then obviously combine free space and E# to make it bigger

    The obvious issue is how Paragon HDM regards "adjacent".

    Is there a solution?

    HDM works well in general, but this sort of thing has always been an issue.

    Thanks,
    Alan

    Hello and welcome to the forums!
    Unfortunately using HDM for Mac this cannot be done -- Free Space can only be taken by Adjacent partitions.
