Free software extending pen drive space with ease
1. Free Software Extending Pen Drive Space
with Ease
Users may meet the situation: a newly bought 8G pen drive just shows 7G or less space
available. At this time, a piece of pen drive space extending software may help solve
the problem.
Why Available Space of Pen Drive Is Reduced
1G claimed by manufacturers equals to 1000MB while 1G in theory is 1024MB, so actual
size of pen drive is relatively smaller. Moreover, if some space on pen drive keeps
unallocated, its available space will be reduced, too. In general, unallocated space can not
be seen and used in Windows Explore but visible in Disk Management. Therefore, users
need to open Windows disk management utility to see whether there is such an
unallocated space on pen drive. If there is, extend the existing partition to it by using pen
drive space extending software (Windows can only recognize the first partition on
removable device, so there is always 1 partition on a pen drive).
