Hi, It depends on the location of the partitions. The partitions are somewhat sequential. Therefore, if you have four partitions, for example, HD-1, HD-2, HD-3 and HD-4, you can't shrink HD-3 and add it to HD-4. There's kind of like start and end markers for the partitions, and it's difficult to manipulate them in the manner you're hoping too. I often just backup the data and re-work the drive. It usually ends up being less work in the end.
