I believe many computer users are familiar with Partition Magic which was the most popular partition management software once. This partition magic has so powerful and excellent functions that many users want to look for a Partition Magic for their partitions now. However, we can not find out its image any more. Luckily, today, I will introduce an excellent alternative which has more powerful functions than Partition Magic. Before introducing the alternative, let's talk about Partition Magic.

What is Partition Magic?
Partition Magic was a very famous computer program which is developed by PowerQuest Corporation and belonged to Symantec later. Besides, it is also the first partition management software. At its prosperous time, it was well known as its powerful functions, such as create partitions, resize NTFS and FAT (16 or 32) partitions without data loss (Windows built-in disk management tool does not have this function to the system partition), copy partitions, move partitions, convert file system among FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS, modify cluster size of FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS file systems, and merge neighboring partitions almost without data loss. However, it was not perfect, namely it can not realize all its powerful functions on ext2 and ext3 partitions and Symantec Partition Magic edition 8.0 only supports Windows. In 2003, Symantec purchased this powerful partition magic, and then stated they would not release new editions. On December 8, 2009, Symantec stopped providing Symantec Partition Magic, and then we do not see its image any more.

Next, I will introduce Partition Magic alternative for Windows XP/Vista/7 and Servers 2003/2008, another partition magic called MiniTool Partition Wizard. It is a powerful partition management software with excellent functions. Here, I summarize its powerful functions, such as resize partitions, move partitions, create partitions, format partitions, copy partitions, recover damaged or deleted partitions, convert disk type, and convert file systems. All these operations can be realized without data loss.
