OT: Hard Disk reconfiguration

I don't know how I managed it but when I was setting up my new server this
afternoon I managed to install the OS in a 40gb partition on a 160gb hard
drive.  Everything is now up and running so I thought I'd turn my efforts
to
reclaiming the other 120gb. At first I thought it would be easy as I have
Partition Magic on one of my other PCs. Trouble is it doesn't work on
Windows Server PCs - won't even install!  The only other product I've
found - Volume Manager - hugely expensive.

My only thoughts on a solution at this stage are to XXCLONE the current
40gb
drive to another drive and start again, reformat to 120gb and XXCLONE it
back. Before I do so can anyone else suggest an easier way getting the full
drive?  Ideally I wanted it partitioned into two - one for the OS one for
data...
