You can add a partition in Windows Server 2008 R2 by following these steps:
- Click 'Start' then 'Administrative Tools' and 'Computer Management’.
- Go to 'Disk Management’.
- Check to see if there's free disk space available (Action > Rescan Disks).
- Right-click on the 'Unallocated' space and Select 'New Simple Volume’.
- Click 'Next’.
- Choose what size the partition should be and click 'next’.
- Choose a drive letter and click 'next’.
- Here you can choose to format the new partition with either ex-FAT or NTFS. We advise you choose NTFS as this is the better filesystem. The allocation unit size can be set to default or a custom unit size. You can enter a name for the partition under ‘Volume label’.
- Check the 'Perform a quick format’ box and click 'next'.
- Review the configuration and click 'finish' to complete the wizard.
