Server Partition Manager to resize Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 partition

Server partition manager is increasingly wanted since more and more users need to manage their server partitions to maximize the partition performance. Speaking of partition management tools, you might think of "Disk Management" function available on all Operating System. However, some advanced functions, for example, if there is no unallocated space behind the partition you want to extend, you cannot extend the partition via this tool of Windows Server 2008, but Windows Server 2000 and 2003 don't have this function. Thus, some other excellent server partition manager is needed, such as EaseUS Partition Master Server Edition.

Why do we need third party server partition manager software?

Windows Server computers can be used as Database server, Files server, Mail server, News server and Web server, etc. For its excellent security and secrecy, Windows server is more and more widely-used to store important data. Sometimes the server computer administrator needs to manage their server partitions to extend the partition performance. However, as mentioned above, Disk Management, which can be found on all Operation System, only allows basic partition operations. Some other advanced partition operations are not supported.

For example, on the Windows server, when the boot partition C: is out of space, the server computer will be fighting for the precious space and will run slowly. To start over is a solution. But no one would like to waste hours or days to do it. The most time-saving and easy way is to extend system partition (C: drive).

Thus, server partition manager with advanced features, such as resize/move server partition without destroying data, copy server partition/disk in a secure and effective way, are needed for users who run Windows server.
