Well, the disk management utility in Windows gives an option to switch to a dynamic disk, which seems to indicate that it isn't.
sudo fdisk -lu:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -lu

Warning: /dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table.
However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should.
Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT
partition tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an
msdos partition table. Is this a GPT partition table?
Yes/No? No
Warning: Unable to open /dev/sr0 read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/sr0
has been opened read-only.
Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!
The third command just produces the same error message as above, and then quits when I say No.
