What should I use to resize a partition?
Hi. I'd like to ask you what app you recommend for resizing partitions. I have ~80GB HDD with 4 partitions: 2 FAT32 and 2 NTFS. I wnat do shrink the second one (D - FAT32) and stretch the first one (C - FAT32). I've already lost one disk thanks to Partition Magic - that's why I ask. Any info will be very appreciated.

FDISK (just kidding)


Partition Magic - Hands Down for me , but there's also the Acronis Disk Director Suite I've heard of.

Did you loose a disk or a partition?

Hi JimmyClif,
I've lost all the data from the disk, to be exact (the partitions themselves have been correclty adjusted :P so it somewhat worked as it was supposed to :mrgreen: ).
