Before answering this question, lets learn a bit more about Windows Servers.

Windows Server is a brand name for the server operating systems released by Microsoft Corporation. This name has been used for the following software releases:

Windows 2000 Server, the release based on Windows 2000.
Windows Server 2003, the previous release of Windows Server
Windows Server 2008, the current release of Windows Server
Windows HPC Server 2008, an edition designed exclusively for high-performance computing

Windows Essential Professional Server, a product similar to Small Professional Server, but for medium-sized Professionales
Windows Home Server, a home server operating system for file sharing and streaming, automated backups, and remote access in the home environment

Currently, Windows Server 2000 and 2003 are the most popular for server users. But how to manage servers for better performance is a problem. Partitioning server might be the most important thing for good server management.

Sometimes, we need to partition Windows Servers to gain better performance. It is important to partition servers. When a server is built, its partitions are created through careful consideration according to the needs of the user. But when a partition on your Windows Server is run out of space, the performance of the server drastically declines.

By dividing into several partitions, server users can make better use of the hard drive space, such as one partition C: for installing system and others for storing personal data. Partitions contribute a lot to the security control and resource management, especially for a server which have a large database.

With the following simple instructions, you can have a better understanding on partition management with Partition Wizard Server Edition:

1. Launch Partition Wizard Server Edition and you will see the current size of each partitions or disks on the disk map.



2. Click D: drive, and position the mouse pointer on the right partition handle. When the mouse pointer changes to a double-headed arrow, drag the handle to the partition size you want. Then, move the D: drive to make the unallocated space next to C: drive.



3. Click C: drive. Position the mouse pointer on the right partition handle and resize it with the unallocated space. Click Apply. After the reboot, you will have successfully resized your Windows Server without data loss.

As is known to us, disk is comprised of sectors and several sectors constitute a cluster

Volume Cluster
As is known to us, disk is comprised of sectors and several sectors constitute a cluster. Cluster is the unit of file access even if this file takes up only 1 byte. Every cluster has table entry in File Allocation Table. The cluster number is the table entry number and each entry occupies 1.5 byte (Disk space is under 10MB) or 2 byte (Disk space is over 10MB).
File occupies disk space and the basic unit is cluster rather than byte. Generally, one cluster is one sector on floppy disk. The number of sectors on each hard disk cluster is relevant to hard disk total capacity and may be 4, 8, 16, 32, 64……. Data of a same file is not definitely stored in a consecutive disk area integrally but in several sections like a chain.

Change Volume Cluster Size
Smaller clusters might significantly reduce disk space losses related to the fact that any file occupies at least one cluster/block. However, reducing FAT32 partition cluster size might increase the space occupied by the file allocation table (FAT) and slow down file access.
Launch this function, you need to select a volume in MiniTool Partition Wizard - Disk/ Volume List Window first, and then click the menu: "Dynamic Disk" -> "Change Volume Cluster Size".



NOTE:
If you like to change small cluster size to a larger one, you need keep more free space for the volume.

Easiest and Safest Solution to Repartition RAID 5 on Windows Server

RAID, especially RAID 5, is a technology preferred by Windows Server users due to its great level of data reliability and input/output performance. Thus, to optimize the usage of Windows Server, IT administrators need to repartition RAID (RAID 5) regularly. This article will help you gain better understanding of RAID, mainly RAID 5, and provide the safest solution to repartition RAID (RAID 5) on Windows Server.

What Is RAID?
RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a technology that allows computer users to achieve high levels of storage reliability from low-cost and less reliable PC-class disk-drive components, via the technique of arranging the devices into arrays for redundancy.

"RAID" is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that can divide and replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. When multiple physical disks are set up to use RAID technology, they are said to be in a RAID array. This array distributes data across multiple disks, but the array is recognized by the computer user and operating system as one single disk.

RAID is used either to improve reliability and availability of data, ensuring that important data is available more often than not, or merely to improve the access speed to files. There're several levels of RAID according to various combinations of approaches giving different trade-offs of protection against data loss, capacity, and speed, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 2, RAID 3, RAID 4, RAID5 and RAID 10 (1+0), etc. Among them, RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5 are the most commonly found, and cover most requirements.

What Is RAID 5?
A RAID 5 uses block-level striping with parity data distributed across all member disks. RAID 5 has achieved popularity due to its low cost of redundancy. This can be seen by comparing the number of drives needed to achieve a given capacity. RAID 1 or RAID 10, which yields redundancy, gives only S / 2 storage capacities, where S is the sum of the capacities of N drives used. In RAID 5, the yield is S x (N-1) / N.

As an example, four 1TB drives can be made into a 2 TB redundant array under RAID 1 or RAID 10, but the same four drives can be used to build a 3 TB array under RAID 5. Although RAID 5 is commonly implemented in a disk controller, some with hardware support for parity calculations (hardware RAID cards) and some using the main system processor (motherboard based RAID controllers), it can also be done at the Operating System level. A minimum of three disks is required for a complete RAID 5 configuration. In some implementations a degraded RAID 5 disk set can be made (three disk set of which only two are online), while supports a fully-functional (non-degraded) RAID 5 setup with two disks - which function as a slow RAID1, but can be expanded with further volumes.

What is the easiest and safest solution to repartition RAID 5?
As mentioned above, due to its low cost of redundancy, RAID 5 is popular among Windows Server users. And repartitioning RAID 5 is a regular task for IT administrators to maximize the performance of their Windows Server computers. Since Windows Servers usually store the most important data of a company, IT administrators should be extremely careful when choosing software to work on their server computer, including partition software to repartition their RAID 5.

Partition Wizard Server Edition is a professional partition manager that can work perfectly well with hardware RAID, especially for RAID5.

How to repartition RAID 5 without data Loss with this partition manager?
Partition Wizard Server Edition is Compatible with all types of hardware RAID (e.g. RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5) on both Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 and desktop 2000/XP/Vista 32 and 64 bit systems. It also provide a range of powerful functions to repartition RAID, especially RAID 5, including: Resize and Move partitions, Copy partition, Copy disk, Create and Delete partitions, Format partitions, Convert partitions, Explore partitions, set active partition, etc.

When installing operating system, user always encounters various installing ways like clean installation, upgrade installation, install under Windows or DOS, definitions are as follows:

• Clean installation refers to install another operating system beyond previous operating system, namely, multiple operating system coexistence. Clean installation is the ideal option for those users who still want to use previous system or feel worries about new operating system and merely like to try the new system. Clean installation is of high safety and harmless to previous system, such as Windows 98/2000/XP.
• Upgrade installation refers to upgrade previous operating system, for example, upgrade Windows 98 up to Windows 2000 or Windows XP which bears advantages of retaining original programs, data, settings and of few compatible problems, disadvantage of difficult to recover once upgraded.
• Installation under Windows is the simplest installing method which merely requires inserting installing CD and running installing program, familiar in interface and simple in operation.
• Installation under DOS is an installing way for computer masters, which is performed under a heap of DOS prompts. Generally, user only need to set it as CD driver steering in BIOS and start system with Windows installing CD, then installing program would run automatically; or user could manually run Setup.exe program under Windows.
