Just to be clear here your drive has space it's just the Windows partition is not large enough. Or, are you trying to upgrade your drive?

Hey Anh,

So you're wanting to extend the Windows (or other OS) partition to be larger and shrink the Mac OS X partition?

This can be done; however, you have to erase your Windows partition first and give Mac OS X the full HDD again. Then you can recreate the Windows partition using the Boot Camp Assistant and choose a larger capacity.

I wish there was an easier way. But to my knowledge, HFS+ only supports live partitioning with the primary partition; which in this case is your Mac OS X partition, not Windows.

Hope this helps,

Adam

Sadly, there is no 3rd party SSD units available on the market. Your only hope if you have a smaller SSD is to get a larger used Apple SSD.
