As you can see, I am mounted on /dev/nvme0n1p5. Gparted does not allow me to merge the unallocated partition (51.94GB) into the extended partition (i.e. mounted partition) using Move/Resize action. I thought I could use the GRUB, but not sure how to do it. What do you suggestion. As this unallocated is quite a lot of space, I would be interested in using it inside the mounted one. How can I do that?

The unallocated space must follow a partition to be able to merge it into the partition.

Move nvme0n1p5 upward over the unallocated space, and it will then move after the partition.

Now you can merge the unallocated space.

Take full backups, as partition work is dangerous in case of error.
