I would use VHD resize to expand the C:\ VHD than just use the inbuilt expand function in disk management on Server 2008 and expand the C:\ to however big you resized the disk.
No need for partition magic. Glad I can see the back of this product J.

We've run into major disk space issues with our VMS (they were only ever allocated a 20GB drive). As a result I've uninstalled non-essential software, reduced diagnostic log retention and trace log levels. I'm even looking at creating a new partition for all servers and relocating any log files that can be moved. I still don't see this as a long term solution though because its Windows (and SharePoint) Updates that are the real culprits. The way I see it we either get some third party software and resize all the C partitions (unsupported?) or rebuild all the servers with greater disk capacity and attempt MOSS/WSS installation on a partition that can be resized. Would be very interested in hearing if other people have run into this, what the solutions were, and what general base requirements you'd suggest for disk size.
