Default Re: Partition Resizing

Short answer = No.

As long as there is no changes to FDISR preboot, should be no problems reallocating some space.

Might be some specific tidying up depending on what your set-up is.
Be careful preserving old and allocating new drive/partition names/letters.

MAke sure u keep an eye on snapshot sizes and archive destination drive name.

In view of new partition sizes; might need to redo some snapshots and archives after changes to partition sizes.
Be wary of some defraggers if planning some extra tidying.
( cant recall which but some defrag tools have ..erm.. 'misplaced' snapshots)

Keep a fresh system Image j.i.c.

What tool are u thinking of using for Resize/Shrink ?
I have done similar many times with BING from Terabyte with no real problems.

HTH
OOI why Vista AND W7 ?
Regards.
