When first using Windows Server 2003, most of us don't have ideas on how much space should we allocate to C Drive, the system partition. Back to then, hard drives are not carrying large capacity like we have now, and 128G and 320G are normal disk size at that time. So we might have partitioned system drive with 32G, that's enough for Server 2003; after weeks, we found that the system runs well, so there's no worry on disk space shortage.

However, Server 2003 becomes to show low disk space alert in months, after analyzing, we found no other files are downloaded to C Drive, it's the log file and temporary file that consumed our free space. After cleaning up system, we nearly solved the problem. We're wondering how to moving free space from other partition to C Drive, Disk management in Server 2003 turned out to be incapable of resize partition.
