Server Partition Manager

Server 2008 partition manager

Windows Server 2008 is the new generation server operating system developed by Microsoft, abandoning Windows Server 2003 core and employing brand new Windows Vista core. And the core is optimized at many aspects so that Windows Server 2008 has stronger control capability about server and basic network structure. Windows Server 2008 has been promoted by the enhanced operating system and network environment protection. With the new IID7.0, Windows Server 2008 is endowed with better security and flexibility. Nevertheless, even though Windows Server 2008 is so improved, its system built-in disk management tool has not been greatly changed. You may know that the Windows built-in disk management tool generally can only help users with simple and basic disk partition management operations such as create partition, delete partition, format partition, and change drive letter or path. Even though Windows Server 2008 built-in disk management tool is added with extend volume and shrink volume functions, it still has many limits when we actually use it to resize partition. The following are two defects of built-in disk management tool:

1. It can only extend partition backwards: when we use built-in disk management tool to extend partition, there must be some unallocated space behind target partition so that we can extend partition.
2. It can only shrink the back part of target partition: built-in disk management tool can only shrink the back part of target partition and when there are too many fragments, it is impossible to realize shrinking partition at the most.
Because of these two factors, we are limited to resize partition in Windows Server 2008. This tool can be very helpless for server users to manage disk partition better. Hence, when managing disk partition in Windows Server 2008, server users should better rely on third-party Windows Server 2008 partition manager.
