I believe the ability to expand a basic disk came in Win2K3.

This might be true for a normal Windows disk. My LUNs are marked as 'Basic' within the Computer Management MMC and I have never changed this to expand the volume.

you have to have configured your volumes as "dynamic disks" in Windows first, however.
you cannot expand "basic disks" on the fly.

We use this quite frequently for our Public Folderstores. Works like a champ.

SnapDrive makes an API call to expand the NTFSpartition and file system within it. (It grows the LUN first.) This can be done with Exchange running. We demo this all the time.

I'm off network so I can't research this, but want toensure that I can expand a LUN for Exchange on the fly, no downtime. Plan to use SnapDrive 5.0. Volume is already large enough in capacity.
