Basic Disk vs. Dynamic Disk:confused:

[Southern]

Im trying to decide if i should switch my system disk to a dynamic volume.This is on a WDSE 80 gig with 2 = partitions.I want to add more space to volume c:.If i understand this correctly i will need to delete my files on volume d: and convert it to unallocated space and then will be able to add the new space to volume c:. Anyone confirm or deny this process?

What's the advantage to having a dynamic volume?

I can think of one reason to stay basic. Linux
