Reclaim partition space on SATA disk, WS2003

[Mark]

I have a client with three logical partitions on a single SATA disk. The
original OS partition (C is 10 GB and is getting full. I'm planning to
install a new disk and move the data on one of the logical partitions (E
to the new disk. I'd like to reclaim the space in the emptied partition
(E and make it part of C. I can't seem to find a software utility (e.g.
Partition Magic) that supports such operations on SATA disks in Windows
Server 2003.

Anyone got a recommendation?

TIA.

AFAIK, Acronis Disk Director (Server) supports SATA disks. I would download
& test the free trial version -
