Thanks to the consistently advancing technology, our computers are becoming more efficient and powerful with each passing day. If we talk in terms of raw hardware specifications, just about everything is getting bigger and better. Take, for example, hard disks, which are now capable of holding ridiculous amounts of data, and have capacities spanning many Terabytes. But while increased disk space is indeed a good thing, it can (and generally does) make managing the hard disks (and their partitions) a chore.
Not just that, Paragon Partition Manager also has the ability to covert an HFS drive into NTFS (and vice-versa) without having to format the drive. All in all, Paragon Partition Manager is a comprehensive partition management solution, and Paragon has now made it a part of the Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Windows. The software is available for free with a limited feature set, and the paid version is available for $49.95 (but if you go for 5+ licenses, it’ll cost you $39.95 per license instead).
It’s near impossible to talk about partition management software without mentioning Acronis Disk Director, and for good reasons. Boasting a truckload of powerhouse features, it’s an extremely potent software application that makes partition management a cakewalk.
Price: Paid version costs $49.99, Also available as a feature restricted, unlimited length trial.
In summary, MiniTool Partition Wizard is perfect for basic to advanced disk management requirements. And the fact that its available in numerous different versions, catering everyone from beginners to advanced users, just makes things better. While the free version of MiniTool Partition Wizard comes with just about every feature you might want in a disk partition management software, if you want advanced features such as the ability to convert NTFS to FAT32, change cluster sizes, change partition serial number, recover data from a lost or deleted partition or more, you’ll have to buy the Pro version.
On the hunt for a solid and well designed partition management software application? Look no further than AOMEI Partition Assistant. When it comes to easy partition management, it ticks off all the right boxes.
Price: Paid versions start from $39.95, Free version available.
Plus, if you’re wondering, Macrorit does offer all the features you’d expect from a disk partition management software. Apart from the usual features that I’ve mentioned above, the software brings the ability to convert MBR to GPT, or to convert NTFS to FAT32 without losing any data. You can also resize FAT partitions with Macrorit, and even change cluster sizes with ease. It also supports hard disks larger than 2TB in capacity, and fully supports all the usual sector sizes including 512 byte, 1K, 2K, and 4K. Along with that, there are a lot of other features too that you can check out from the Macrorit features page.
