Hey there, I see you're trying to expand your storage. The issue might be due to the drive's current usage or system settings. Check if there are any files taking up space, and consider freeing up some space before proceeding. Also, ensure the OS supports expanding partitions. Let me know if you need further help!

It seems you're facing similar challenges with your SSD. You might need to defragment it using a tool like Defraggler, which rearranges the data blocks into a more sequential pattern to reduce space usage. This process can take several attempts to complete, especially if you're working with limited free space. If you have any alternative suggestions or need further guidance, feel free to share!

You can't use Windows since it restricts you to a safe file management method. It won't let you shift files. Try Gparted, it's free. http://gparted.org/livecd.php

You can easily defrag an SSD, though not regularly. Modern SSDs handle a lot of writes well. High-quality models lasting 5 or 10 years perform just as well as HDDs. You can still use them beyond the warranty if you need to.

Windows will execute only the SSTable Safe Trim command. Defragmenting may lead to a large write operation on the SSD, potentially shortening its lifespan.
