I have a computer that was partitioned when I bought it.  C drive is 30g
and D drive is 90g.  I want to change that partition so that C drive is
much larger.  I have Partition Magic but understand that in order to
change the size of the partition I must also reformat.  I have a
Seagate 300g external drive now to put all the current information on
but I am not sure how to move all of the data.

Anyone had experience at this?
