It is common that users will try to shrink partition and release disk
space. To shrink partition, most users firstly think about partition
magic. It is a necessary tool for shrinking partition. To shrink
partition is to divide unused space of one partition so that we can use
disk space more efficiently. For Windows Server 2003 users, it is common
to shrink partition to use partition space efficiently. At this time,
Windows Server 2003 users will complain about the system built-in disk
management tool, because this tool can only help users realize creating
partition, deleting partition, formatting partition, and changing drive
letter or path, etc. It is unable to shrink partition in Windows Server
2003. Therefore, we need to find other solutions to shrinking partition
for Windows Server 2003. Actually, command prompt tool can help users to
shrink partition
but this solution is very complex that common users are not supposed to
accomplish this operation. If misoperation happens while shrinking,
data loss may happen. There is another solution. That is professional
partition magic. As long as we employ a piece of excellent partition magic, we can easily realize shrinking partition in Windows Server 2003.
Excellent partition magic for Server 2003
To find a piece of excellent partition magic to shrink partition in
Windows Server 2003, you can firstly visit the professional server
partition magic website http://www.partitionmagicserver.com
to download one. This website recommends a piece of rather excellent
partition magic that is easy-to-use and provides users with graphic
interface for users to operate directly, which is superior to system
built-in disk management tool.
Moreover, this partition magic provides a shrink partition function
that allows users to shrink partition either forwards or backwards. We
can see it from the following picture:
Firstly, this is the interface of resizing partition. We can input exact
value in the textbox or drag the partition handle border to shrink
partition. After setting, we can click on "OK" button
to enter the next interface. We can shrink this partition both forwards
and backwards so the unallocated space will be at both sides of this
partition:
After shrinking, we can see it from this picture that there are two
pieces of unallocated space in front of target partition as well as
behind target partition. We can use these two pieces of space to extend
adjacent partition.
Furthermore, MiniTool Partition Wizard provides preview effect for users so that we can avoid misoperation.
