Hard Drive Problem

[cgras17]

I purchased a Sony Vaio media center pc about a year ago with 180 gb's of space. I thought this was great but now it turns out that my C drive is only 13 gb's big and the rest is on the D drive. So this severely limits the amount of space I can store on my video's, music, etc. I am also getting annoying low disk areas all the time and constantly have to try to find files to delete or create new folders and transfer to my D drive. This is a serious pain and I don't understand why it was set up this way.
Is there any way I can move these folders over to my D drive so the Media Center will still pick up the files on D. It seems alot of the unique properties these folders have are lost when transfered to the D drive and they don't show up in the Media Center.

I have seen this with Sony alot. It seems really odd
that they use the C drive as the small drive and the
D drive as the large drive. The only logical reason I
can think of is that they set it up that way and give
you the option to reinstall the operating system on
the C drive without changing the D drive. I don't
know if that is true but it would make a little sense
doing it that way.

You should be able to move the majority of your
data (pictures/music/documents) to the D drive
without many problems. I would suggest copying
then to the D drive with the same folder name
then trying to access them before removing them
from the C drive.

Any programs that you have install will obviously
need to be reinstalled and directing the install
directory to D: instead of C:.
