Resizing Noncontiguous Partitions

Thread needs solution

I have the following setup:
Large RAID volume with 3 partitions in order: C (OS), E (Data), F (Data)

Using Disk Director, is it possible to shrink the C partition and add the space to the F partition?
I tried to do this in Windows but it puts the shrunken free space to the right of the C partition and will only allow it to be added back to the C partition. Apparently you can only add space to a partition if the free space is to the right of the partition. Does Disk Director allow this?

Thanks.

Hello DJX,

according to the article Format and Edit Partitions on Any Operating System, there should be an option Append all unallocated disk space to the volume, which will make all that extra space available for the partition you are resizing.
