Resizing partition is common for users of Windows Server 2003, because data amount in Server disk is numerous and the data update speed is swift, which cause that the original disk partitions can not satisfy the practical data storage demands. At this time, resizing partition is of great importance for users to mange the multitudinous data. As the built-in disk management tool of Windows Server 2003 has many limitations, many users of Windows choose the third-party partition magic to resize partition as Windows XP users do.

Most partition magic in the market is designed for the popular basic disk, having no functions of managing dynamic disk.
