I am sure this will be the best simple and easy to use partition manager which you have ever heard. EASEUS Partition Master is compatible with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7 also Windows Server 2000, 2003, 20008 both 32 and 64 but editions.

Similar to any other partition tool it can be used as a Partition manager, Disk & partition Copy Wizard and Partition Recovery Wizard on MBR and GUID partition table.  Apart from these basic features it will allow you to Resize/Move Partition, Extend System Drive, Copy Disk & Partition, Merge Partition, Split Partition, Redistribute Free Space, Convert Dynamic Disk, and Partition Recovery.

” Let me share with you a real scenario were this tool helped to extend the Operating system partition without formatting or deleting anything from the hard drive. It was a notebook with two 40GB each size, were only one drive was used and it was occupying the majority of that drive space and it almost failed in terms of performance. But the second drive was unused, so using the Resize feature in EASEUS Partition Master the task was very easy to allocate a certain amount of space from the second drive to the first drive. “

This tool can be used in following situations.

1. When the primary partition needs to be extended in case if the secondary partition is available (This will require when the primary partition is running out of space)
2. When you want to decrease the space in a partition.
3. When you want to create a secondary partition from an available free space in the primary partition. (Most of the pre-installed notebook will have only one drive, were this tool can be used to create another partition)

GPT drives make use of the GUID partition table (GPT) disk partitioning system. Main advantage of this partitioning system is, it supports up to 128 primary partitions and will allow you to create more than 2TB sized disk volumes. Were in the MBR system supports only up to 4 primary partitions and has a volume limit of 2TB. GPT is extremely suitable for a 64 bit operating system.

In a 32 bit windows operating system the GPT disk will not display in my computer but if you go to the disk management it will display the partition there but you will not be to format or delete. Now lets see how to covert MBR to GPT or vice versa.

* Before you follow this procedure make sure you backup the data from the hard drive in order to avoid the data loss.

• Type in “DiskPart” in command line.
• Type in “list disk” in command line to show all disks in this machine.
• Use “select” to set the focus to the specified partition, for example “select disk 1″.
• Use “clean” command to remove GPT disk from the current in-focus disk by zeroing sectors.
• Go back to Disk Management and Select the “Unallocated” disk and make as Logical Drive ( Which will make the drive in MBR)

When you need to convert a MBR drive to GPT partition you will require to format the drive and delete it to make it as an un partitioned space. Then right click on the un partitioned drive from Disk management window will give you option to “Convert to GPT Disk”.
