This is one of my new favorite features of Windows Server 2008.  The ability to "Shrink" a volume.  Yes that's right, you can now right click a volume and make it smaller.  You can also extend volumes through the GUI disk management interface instead of using diskpart. I've attached a few screen shots below from Server 2008 RC0.
