This is the one tool I ALWAYS keep a copy of. Go spend the $11 and get yourself a copy. It has hardware investigation and SMART tools, benchmarking, and partitioning. It supports hardware going back to like i486. This thing will boot into ram so you can unplug it after (excellent for those stupid single-usb-port laptops) or boot easily over a network. ![]() This bootable CD of Partition Wizard, which is absolutely free, comes in handy in situations where you don’t have an operating system on the drive or the drive is not. There are password recovery tools (ntpwch or something), partition recovery(testdisk), disk recovery (ddrescue), data/file carving (photorec), bootloader installers, support for all filesystems for which Linux compatibility exists including old partition table types such as Apple and ancient Unix stuff. Tool Partition Wizard is that it offers you download an ISO file of Partition Wizard software so that you can manage your partitions without having to boot into Windows. It has kernel modules for all major raid cards as well as software drivers to use those raid arrays without the hardware. ![]() PartedMagic contains THE biggest array of system rescue tools I've ever seen. I'm surprised no one has mentioned PartedMagic (not to be confused with Partition Magic or gParted).
