Since the recent advancements in Computing Technology, Operating Systems {OS} have grown more compatible and ‘complicated’ in their very own blue-chip levels. What we see in our Graphical User Interface (GUI) is often the stimulated picture (results) of several complicated data interchange between Integrated Circuits (ICs). Now, when it comes down to the level of segregating those individual components we often find ourselves in deep trouble!
Most of us, that are ‘regular’ computer users will have problems in creating and managing ‘partitions’ but does that mean that we will let a 3rd person interfere in our problem and call a sum of money to fix it, when the problem wasn’t a problem at all?
Thanks to ‘Partition Assistant 2.1’ software now we can quite easily set up our partitions and save ‘that’ amount which we were going to waste on a stupid reason! ;)
Getting down to the Software:
Okay, now let us get down to the specifications of this software!
Firstly, we shall take a peek at the ‘Setup’ Section:
The present version of ‘Partition Assistant Home Edition’ is 2.1, and is projected for 32-bit Windows OS. For those looking for ’64-bit’, you can check out their Professional and Server Edition. It’s really amazing to see how the power-horse has been compiled under a mere 3.32MB in size.
The Installation was pretty simple, not that boring because Partition Assistant Home Edition surely has an installer with few screens to bother you for multiple clicks!
If you interested to check out the ‘Interface’ Section:
Well, nothing special here. Just a simple outlook, like the other Partition Managers! In a way, it’s kind of Good because several other softwares are there that confuse you by their ‘high-performance’ outlook. If you still find yourself ‘lost’ then refer to their PDF Manual, which is well descriptive, and, has been given a Good-Guide projection.
Finally, the most awaited part – ‘Features’ is here:
As we, as users, move into the unknown future, the number of applications and their installations follow us too. Thus, increasing the data files day-by-day. This let’s Windows very own system partition run out of disk space, and the performance of the system drastically reduces. To resolve this problem, most users have to reinstall operating system and create a bigger partition, but with the built-in partition manager of Partition Assistant help, all your problems can be solved easily and efficiently. It can extend your Windows system partition without loss of data and re-installation.
The Basic Partitioning Features, are like the usual softwares in this genre, comprising of features like – Create, Format, Delete, Hide, Unhide partitions, Assign, Remove drive letters, Mark a partition as active, Change partition volume labels, Check file system integrity, Check disk bad sectors, Permanently wipe disk data, Convert file system, Clear system disk.
The features that I loved are as follows –
Under Advanced Partitioning Features, we have, Hot resize system partition without work interruption, Resize partition to optimize disk space management, Move partition from one location to another, Merge two or more partitions into a larger one, Split one big partition into two or more, Extend partition to increase the capacity, Shrink partition to release more unallocated space, Redistribute free space to create new partition, Extend partition wizard step-by-step help you, Repartition without data loss.
And, Under Additional Features, we have, Virtual pre-execution, preview any operation tasks before apply to the disk, Flexible and adjustable drag & drop interface, Display hard disk configuration in graphic form (Disk Panel), View all disk and partition properties, Display operation progress in graphic form and step by step, Support Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/Windows 7 (32 bit and 64 bit), Support file system including FAT, FAT32 and NTFS, Support hard disks from 100MB to 2TB, Support up to 32 disks, Support all hardware RAID, Support storage devices including IDE, SATA, SCSI, USB disk, FireWire disk etc, Password Protecting Partition Assistant.
So, after sighting it’s features, we practically come to the end of this review, but before ending this post, I would like to remind you that while there may be better free partitioning tools out there, Partition Assistant Home Edition is the right choice till this date, if you want to partition your hard disk drive!
If you have any questions or suggestion then please comment here!
Thus, see you all in my next post!
Cheerz! Have a Good Day!
