    So, my Asus G73JH shows four harddrives, unfortunately, drive C which has my operating system and all of the important stuff is the smallest at just over 116 GB in space. The other 3 are for the most part, pretty empty and totalling near 750 GB total.

    Call me a newb, or whatever, but I do not know how to "merge" or get at least one of the other harddrives working with C. C is now nearly completely full--not with music, pictures or random crap that I could just drag somewhere else, but with programs and updates and stuff. I now am unable to play a game that I just bought because it can't fit it's updates on C.

    How can get C & D or one of the others to work together?

    i believe you can just go into your disk management in your control panel and delete the extra partition(s) on your primary drive. that way you'll end up with a C drive with your ~500gb total.

    someone correct me if i'm wrong.

    the only thing is that if there is anything saved on that extra partition then it will be deleted.

    Thanks, I was able to delete it and it put them together, so now drive C is 464 GB. =)
