Selecting a Hard Disk and Partition
You can select a partition without first selecting a hard disk. To
select a partition, click it in the disk map or partition list on the
main screen.
To select a hard disk, click the title bar on the disk map, or click the
disk in the partition list. There are two operations that can be
performed on a hard disk: delete all the partitions or display
information about the hard disk. When you select a hard disk, its
partitions display in the partition list in the main window.
PartitionMagic does not support volume sets, stripe sets, stripe sets
with parity, or partitions located on disk mirror/duplex sets
configured using Windows NT Disk Administrator. Under
Windows 2000/XP, PartitionMagic supports standard partitions
located on basic disk sets only.
USB, USB2, and FireWire Support
PartitionMagic supports external USB, USB2, and FireWire (1394)
hard drives under Windows. Operations that are executed in boot
mode are not supported on these devices.
You can see if an operation will be performed in boot mode by
clicking View > Operations Pending. If an operation displays with
an asterisk (*), it will not work on a USB, USB2, or FireWire drive.
If any of the queued operations displays with an asterisk, all of the
queued operations will be applied in boot mode.
You may increase the chances of an operation’s being applied under
Windows by closing all applications other than PartitionMagic and
only working on operations on that drive (as opposed to the USB or
FireWire drive and drive C:, for example).
