Acronis Disk Director 9.0

Creating a New Partition

Resizing a Partition
Thanks for the info. I've been using Acronis DDS 9 for a while now and find it to be the best disk partitioning software I've used. Like True Image, it's simple to use and works like a charm. It's also faster than Powerquest/Norton Partition Magic. Great utility!

You done a benchmark to back up that claim?

If it's not on Google, then it doesn't exist.

howie See Profile, does Acronis DD also need some services running all the time like TI?

No, none that I can see except DiskDirector.exe when the utility is actually running.

Thanks.

Looks like a great app.

I usually partition my HDs from a DOS boot with FDISK but it takes forever on large drives. I guess I'll take a look at DD.
