VirtualBox gives us a simple way to increase the amount of hard drive space available to a virtual machine. If you have already installed Linux or some other operating system like Windows or BSD into a VirtualBox virtual machine, and then realized that you are running out of hard drive space, don’t despair. With VirtualBox, all of these hardware specifications can even be changed long after the virtual machine is created. One of the great things about installing an operating system into a virtual machine is that we can easily change the machine’s CPU utilization limit, its memory usage, and the amount of hard drive space it has. We’ll make another tutorial article to help you fix this problem, so stay tuned! Enough beating around the bush let us dive into how you can add more space for a Virtual Disk Image.In this tutorial you will learn how to increase disk size on VirtualBox. To reduce the size of the VMDK or VDI files, you will have to write zero data for VMDK or VDI files. The real size of VMDK or VDI files also increases with time. After expanding your Virtual Disk, you will then have to use Terminal to convert the new disk space to your APFS Container Disk in macOS. You can always expand your Virtual Disk or in simpler terms “add more space” to the Virtual Disk by using VMware or VirtualBox. When you need more space, the Virtual Disk in VMDK or VDI files can be increased in size easily without any rigorous process, but when the Virtual Disk is full, you will have to expand the virtual disk file. It is very simple and easy to do as long as you follow the steps. Expanding the size of your Virtual Disk is not rocket science. In this article, we are going to provide you with an easy way to increase the size of the virtual disk without losing data. Expanding Virtual Disk: What is it all about?
