The NearPoint dashboard currently still shows the original drive size of 2.17GB, but we have increased the drive size to 229GB which shows correctly in the server explorer, but not in NearPoint. The NearPoint and SQL services were shutdown during the drive space increase and the drive letter was retained. When the systems were restarted the original drive size is still showing in NearPoint.
