Section 5 - Manager Mode

1. Configure Partition Properties (Disable item for OEM version)

Through Manager option, you can configure partition properties or disable options of USER menu

(under DOS).

‘Partition properties’ is similar to divide HD into PRI, extension and logic partitions, whereas in Pro

Magic Plus, it supports 3 types of partition property: boot disk, data disk and share disk. This

function is mainly used when installing multiple OS with Pro Magic Plus’ multi-boot system. The

partition needs to be set as ‘boot disk’ to be able to install OS. Each property is explained as

below:

Boot Disk

To make a partition to be able to boot-up and install OS, the partition needs to be adjusted into a

‘boot partition’. Before change partition property to ‘boot partition’, please check if you have

installed data disk protection, if yes, please go into MANGER MODE (unprotected mode) via

setup, and remove data disk protection off from the partition (that’s to be changed to boot partition).

This is because once partition property is changed to boot partition, the original data disk protection

will not be effective, and all changes done to the data disk cannot be restored.

Data Disk



You can set a partition as an area for a certain boot disk, and other partitions will be able to use and

see this partition.

Share Disk

All boot disk(s) can use this share disk to store data.
