I have Win XP Pro on a 20 GB primary basic NTFS volume. I added a new 80 GB secondary basic NTFS volume. The new drive will allow me to convert it to dynamic, but the original drive will not because of the lack of enough free space. It has 18.65 GB capacity with 5.26 GB free space, or 28% free space. Is the message valid or not? I t seems to me that 28% is a lot of free space.

The drive that has the system files on it cannot be
converted to a dynamic disk
