Modern high capacity hard drives and
competing operating systems are driving the demand for effective
hard-drive organization and management techniques. Hard drive
partitioning is one of the most effective methods available for
organizing hard drives. Partitions provide a more general level of
organization than directories and files. They also offer greater
security by separating data from operating systems and applications.
Because of the limitations of the FAT file system (for DOS and Windows
95/98) as much as 40 percent of your hard disk space can be wasted.
PartitionMagic Pro 7.0 reclaims wasted disk space quickly and safely by
using more efficient partition sizes. It can also convert FAT partition
types to more efficient file systems such as FAT32 and NTFS.
Newly purchased hard drives are usually configured with a single, large
partition. This partition configuration is less than optimal but makes
it easy for the manufacturer to pre-load software. The flexibility of
PartitionMagic Pro 7.0 gives the user the ability to create, resize,
move, merge, split, delete, undelete, or convert new or existing
partitions.
PartitionMagic Pro allows you to create, resize, merge and convert
partitions without destroying data. Award-winning PartitionMagic Pro
from PowerQuest is a leader in hard-drive partitioning software.
