And a VHD would need a physical disk to be stored on before it could be mounted. So mounted VHDs don't take away from the shown size of the physical disk the VHD is stored on. Which still shows a complete 1TB (931GB in binary) even though one of the large files on it is the 60GB fixed-size VHD.

Disk Cleanup gives a bit of wiggle room.) You caould also get a larger SSD and clone the Disk 0 over to the larger SSD. (We have some tablets with 32GB SSDs and Windows 8.1, and the space is rather tight. Windows 8.1 disk manager update#You probably have some Windows Update files cached and other things you can get rid of, probably amounting to a decent number of GB. I will pass on one idea to clear space on the C drive: In File Explorer, right-click the C drive, then Properties, then Disk Cleanup, and set it to look at System files after the first scan (Google all this). Regrettably, this isn't a Virtualbox-supportable question. In any event, if there really is a single disk, and it was really split off to appear as two disks, this arrangement wasn't necessary to put a Virtualbox guest on the PC and whoever did it will have to undo it, or you'll have to ask on a Windows forum or a local PC repair person if you actually find only one disk inside. If this was originally a single disk, then the original disk size would have been sold as 532GB. 500GB measured in 1000's calculates back to 465GB in binary, and a 32GB disk measures back to ~30GB, which numbers fit what your total disk spaces show in the Disk Management. FWIW, disk manufacturers measure their disks by the base-10 1000's, not the binary 1024's as a computer shows. I have never seen a Disk Management look like that and not be two disks, nor can I think of any way for a large partition on one disk to be split off and appear as another disk (although there may be a way). Your Disk Management is extremely typical of having two physical disks in the PC: a 32 GB disk (shows as about 30GB, probably an SSD) and a 500GB disk (shows as 465GB typically). Thanks for the screenshot! I think you're going to have to crack open the case and see what's physically inside.
