  Paragon Hot Resize™ technology to enlarge NTFS partitions (system, locked) without rebooting Windows 
and interrupting its work. 
  Paragon Restore with Shrink™ technology to restore a backup image to a free block of smaller size 
taking into account only the amount of actual data of the image. 
  Paragon Smart Partition™ technology to securely perform hard disk partitioning operations of any 
complexity. 
  Paragon BTE™ technology to set tasks for execution in the Windows blue screen mode, thus saving from 
the need to use a bootable media when modifying system partitions. 
  Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to provide the copy/backup infrastructure for the 
Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/Server 2003/2008 operating systems. It offers a reliable mechanism to 
create consistent point-in-time copies of data known as shadow copies. Developed by Microsoft in 
close cooperation with the leading copy/backup solution vendors on the market, it is based on a 
snapshot technology concept. 
  GUID Partition Table (GPT). It is the next generation of a hard disk partitioning scheme developed to lift 
restrictions of the old MBR. GPT disks are now supported by Windows Vista/7, Server 2008, Mac OS X and 
Linux. 
SUPPORTED FILE SYSTEMS 
Paragon Partition Manager 10 provides support of major file systems presented on the market today: 
  Full read/write access to FAT16/FAT32 partitions. 
  Full read/write access to NTFS (Basic and all five types of Dynamic Disks) under Windows 95/98/ME, Linux 
and PTS DOS. Compressed NTFS files are also supported. 
  Full read/write access to Ext2FS/Ext3FS partitions under all versions of Windows, DOS 5.0 and later. 
  Basic partitioning operations (create, format, delete) for Linux Swap. 
  Limited read/write access to Apple HFS+ partitions. 
Unfortunately, support of non-Roman characters for the HFS+ file system is unavailable 
at the moment. The company is about to implement it in the nearest future. 
SUPPORTED MEDIA 
  Support of both MBR and GPT hard disks (up to 1,5 TB tested) 
  IDE, SCSI and SATA hard disks 
  CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-R, DVD+R double layer and also Blu-ray discs 
  FireWire (i.e. IEEE1394), USB 1.0, USB 2.0 hard disks, ZIP® and Jazz® disks 
  PC card storage devices (MBR and GPT flash memory, etc.)
