How do you restore a shrunk hard disk drive to its original state in size?

As data is saved to a hard drive, the free space lessens until the there is no more space for further data - the drive is full. I assume this is what is meant by the "shrunk" hard disk drive in the question? Formatting the drive will return the drive to the original size. Note: formatting doesn't actually wipe the drive completely, the data is still on the drive. Only the links to the data is severed, so the computer acts as though the drive is blank and it can write new data to the drive.

Is data easier to change in rom or ram?

ROM (Read Only Memory) contains the data necessary to start the booting process, and is put there by the manufacturer. It is not meant to be altered by the user. RAM (Random Access Memory) is the volatile memory the computer user is meant to use in processing data. It is volatile as, unless the data is saved to the hard-drive before closing down the computer, the data is lost.
