Mount or Dismount a Drive or Partition to a Folder

The combination on computer talk and my english-as-a-second-language makes me quite unsure, if not insecure ! about this partition business. So here's my situation :: i deleted an old G: partition, wich is now Unallocated. The other partition −N:− of this old external drive now serves as back up for my new computer. You guessed right, i want to extend that partition, and i can't use the Extend volume option [dynamic disk not supported]. In the New simple volume option on Unallocated should i use Mount in the following empty NTFS folder wich would be N:. Or what... ? >Many thanxes.

EDIt :: i just read some of How to Delete and Extend a Partition with Disk Management in Vista but... i don't feel better, !o!

Here's a screenshot:

Hi,

Click on the unallocated part of Disk 2 & delete the partition.

You will then be able to extend the other one, HPm925f.backup (N) to full size.
