Quick Start Guide2
PartitionMagic lets you secure your data by physically separating it
from your operating system files. Separate partitions also make
backups easy. You can use PartitionMagic to save your data to a
separate partition, then back up the data files.
PartitionMagic helps you reliably run multiple operating systems
on the same computer. PartitionMagic includes a wizard to help you
install another operating system, and BootMagic® (included with
Norton PartitionMagic) is a powerful boot manager that lets you
choose which operating system you want to use when starting your
computer.
Because of limitations with the FAT file system, as much as 40
percent of your hard disk space can be wasted. PartitionMagic
reclaims wasted space quickly and safely by using more efficient
partition sizes.
PartitionMagic lets you experiment with partitions and see how
changes would affect your system before you actually apply the
changes.
