Partition Logic: Disk Partition Manager and Defragmenter
Submitted by todd on Mon, 2007-08-27 22:42
Ok, this one is a bit different... I'm calling it a Windows utility because it can't boot on an Intel Mac and does not list HFS+ as a supported disk format. Partition Logic boots from a CD using its own OS called Visopsys. Once booted, it lets you manage hard disk partitions (resize, move, defragment, image, etc.). It has a caveat about Vista on its web site. So, be sure to read that before trying it with a Vista hard drive. And, be sure to read the website's About section. It lists a bunch of limitations related to various disk formats.
IMHO, I like parted magic
IMHO, I like parted magic and gparted (I think they support more file systems). So it would be nice to see a break down of features (a comparision of sorts) between these two tools and partition logic.

nice to see many freewares
nice to see many freewares that geared towards partitioning a hard drive. years ago, it was very hard to find freewares that do those stuff.
