Hard Disk

How do I allocate computer memory between my hard disk drives?
I have 3 hard disk drives on my computer C, E, F. Each has about 20GB allocated to memory storage, however C: is completely full and the other two are barely used. How can I allocate a larger amount of my memory to C: drive by taking less off the other two hard disk drives? I am running Windows Vista.
20GB memory storage? That phrase does not make sense. “Memory” storage is a swap or page files, and that is usually 1.5x your computer memory (like 512KB to 3GB). Never 20GB
Now, if you mean file storage (programs, etc.), you can use the other drives by installing new software there instead of the C: Drive (next time). All installations usually show a default of C:Program Files…, which you do not have to use! Use what you want, E:, F: whatever. It is a fallacy that you have to install everything under the Program Files directory, that’s just a Microsoft “suggestion”
20GB per drive is very small to begin with, you need to give more details as to you are using, and how. I’m just guessing what your real problem is, so hard to give the correct answer.
You have to know if drive C: is physically different than E; and F:, or are they all partitions on the same physical drive. If so, you may be able to run some partitioning software to re-allocate/re-size the partitions. But again, I don’t know for sure what you have….
