I have a partitioning question I am hoping someone can help with. I have 2 hard drives in my laptop , a SSD and a standard hard drive. I dual boot Windows and Ubuntu. Here is an image of my partitions from gparted. The top is my SSD and the bottom is my other drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1u7Rcn1_W95Z1PlV122IhPdR1VXJFxkAJ/view?usp=s... <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1u7Rcn1_W95Z1PlV122IhPdR1VXJFxkAJ/view?usp=sharing> .
My Linux system except for Home (which has it's own partition on the other drive) is on the SSD as well as Windows. I'm running out of room on the Windows partition on the SSD. I have other partitions on the other drive that has lots of space. Is there a way I can allocate some of that to Windows? For example as you can see in the image I have an ntfs data partition of 100 Gigs that is almost empty. Any way to take some of that and share it with the Windows SSD partition? Otherwise what would people recommend to give Windows more space based on what I have available. I should also probably move some of my Linux out of the SSD but not sure what? I assume if I do move stuff I would need to do it from gparted running on a USB stick? Thanks for your suggestions.
