How to Diskpart Can’t Extend Partitions beyond 2TB
Geeks - It sounds like you're trying to extend a partition on your hard drive, but you're running into a limitation with the Diskpart utility. Diskpart is a command-line tool that can be used to manage partitions on a hard drive, but it has a limitation when it comes to extending partitions beyond 2TB.
Unfortunately, there is no way to bypass this limitation using the Diskpart utility. However, there are other tools that you can use to extend partitions beyond 2TB. One such tool is called GParted, which is a free and open-source partition editor that can be used to manage partitions on your hard drive.
To use GParted to extend a partition beyond 2TB, you will need to boot from a GParted Live CD or USB drive. This will allow you to run GParted directly from the CD or USB drive, without having to install it on your computer.
Once you have booted from the GParted Live CD or USB drive, you can use GParted to select the partition that you want to extend and then choose the "Resize/Move" option to expand it beyond 2TB. GParted will then take care of the rest and extend the partition for you.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
