Use alt+prnscr to print the current window instead of printing the whole screen and cut out like that. And be noted that Gb means Gigabit, to mean byte use GB.

MBR is limited to 4 partitions per disk, either 4 primary or 3 primary + 1 extended (where you can create more logical partitions inside). You already have 4 primary partitions on the drive, so you can't create more.
You must use some 3rd party partitioning tools like MiniTool Partition Wizard, AOMEI Partition Assistant, EaseUS Partition Master or fixparts to convert the E: drive to logical and then create a logical disk on the unallocated space.
See How to change logical partition into primary one?
Of course you can also convert basic to dynamic disk (which is the equivalent to LVM on Windows), which supports 1000 dynamic volumes but that may cause issues later, because other partitioners may not work well with dynamic disk. Only use this option if you really know what dynamic disk is
