[out] UInt64 SizeMax,
[out] String ExtendedStatus
);
Parameters
SizeMin [out]
The minimum size that this partition can become, in bytes. If this method is run multiple times, this value can change slightly depending on the placement of various temporary files.
SizeMax [out]
The maximum partition size that this partition can become, in bytes.
ExtendedStatus [out]
A string that contains an embedded MSFT_StorageExtendedStatus object.

Return value
Success (0)

Remarks
The minimum size is determined by Disk Defragmenter and takes into account the location of immovable files (that is, files that cannot be moved). The maximum size is determined by adding the size of any free extents immediately after the current partition.
