Hard Drive Partition

I have just bought my daughter a new laptop with Vista installed and notice that the hard drive is split into Vista (C: ) and Data (E: ) with about half the memory assigned to each. There does not seem to be an easy way to remove the partition, so how should she be making use of these two drives? Everything seems to work with the C: drive unless you make an effort to move the files around which seems like a bit of a pain.

How many Gigabytes does the Hard drive have? What is the model and brand is the laptop? If there's enough space, you can expand or shrink the partition size. You might also look up the manfucater's website for information.

Found a solution now thanks - using Vista's file manager I just right clicked the partitioned memory I did not want and selected Delete. Then I selected the memory I wanted to use and selected Expand. Simple!
