What Mike said is correct, but you have hinted that you're afraid of
losing data - and haven't explained exactly where that data is or what
your current partition setup is. You should clarify all that, including
what partitions and what free space (if any) Disk Management now sees,
and what's on those partitions, before doing anything drastic.
For example: If one of your drives is C: and is just one big partition,
and the other is D: and is just one big partition, and you have the
system on one drive and apps and data on both, deleting either partition
would likely be disastrous. But there simple are ways around that.
