  Partition Magic mac?

  Posted by Jason on June 8, 2005 at 1:54 pm

  Hello,

  Is there anything like Partition Magic for the MAC?

  I made my partition to small….well I thought 80 GB would be enough 😮 and I want to make it bigger without having to reinstall everything

  THANKS ALL
  Jason

  No – there is no way to move partition sizes around on one volume once it is set. Much better to avoid partitions altogether. NOT necessary in todays OS.

  The comment about not needing permissions is pretty true though…

  Thanks for sharing this. Wasn’t aware that there was a disk tool like this for MAC OS X.

  What about iPartition and Drive Genius? (I’m trying to decide which of these to buy.) Also, isn’t it true that, in a OS9 – OSX dual boot setup, it’s best to have OSX in a “not too big” partition?

  Cheers >>>> Robert
