Disk Partition Question

[Guest]

Hello,

I have 1 GB of "unallocated space" I would like to convert to a useable NTFS
partition. However, when I click on the unallocated space, the "New
Partition" option is greyed out.

I created this partition using Terabyte software (a PartitionMagic-like
software). Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

If you already created a partition you have to create a logical drive
now. Each HDD can have one Primary Partition and one Extended
Partition. To create more than two drives on a HDD, you have to create
logical drives in the Extended Partition.
