What kinda free software is there out there that will allow me to create a partition on a spare formatted drive, as well remove a partition from another drive.

I downloaded Paragon Partition Manager but it only allows me to do so much with the demo, aka not enough.

thanks,

nice! Thanks a lot. Didn't know windows had it built in.


edit: how exactly do I create a partition though?
 
Right click on the drive in one of the right hand panes. This will blow away any data on the drive.

The nice thing about Partition Magic is that it can do it dynamically and save data on the drive. I heard Vista has this ability as well in Drive Management, but I haven't used it in Vista.

Click to expand...

I want to create a partition...
 
Not explode literally. :eek:

You can create a partition, but if you have any partitioning currently on the drive then you'll have to delete the partition which will effectively erase the drive. If this is a new drive then you'd just go ahead and partition it.
 
figured it out.... had to shrink part of the disk, then create a simple volume.
