Therefore, when performing partition operations, you must be careful and remember that each operating system works differently with partition letters. Each OS has its own partition letter assignment rules. The C: partition is considered system, i. File system type is determined not by partition type, but by its contents. Partitions of other types are passed no letters are assigned to them. They are assigned D:, E:, etc. If there is no suitable partition found on the first disk, then C:, D:, etc.
Partition operations in the mentioned operating systems may result in problems running applications, opening files and other problems if letter assignments change. Windows NT 4. Please note that letter order in these operating systems can differ depending on the number of hard disks and other disk drives recognized by the BIOS. All these operating systems enable you to change initially assigned letters.
Partition create, delete and move operations do not affect letters assigned to other partitions. Automatic Partition Operations Assigning a partition a new letter or hiding it will prevent only its applications and files from running or opening. Other partitions will not be affected by these operations. SYS swap file. Hard disk partition letter assignment in various operating systems is further explained in all guide chapters where the partition operations might affect PC operation or booting.
On the next page, you can enter an optional partition label that will enable you to distinguish one created partition from another. See also Appendix C «Glossary» — « Label». The last wizard page graphically shows you the new disk partition structure, including those just created.
Created partition in the disk partition structure Clicking Finish on this page will make Acronis Disk Director Suite create a pending operation for new partition creation, your actions may only modify an existing operation. See 2. The new partition structure will be graphically represented in the Acronis Disk Director Suite main window.
More details about the Finish command results are provided in 2. If you want to create a new partition using other partition free space: 1. On the Action Selection wizard page, set the switch to Free space of the existing partitions. Automatic Partition Operations 2. On the Select Hard Disk Drive wizard page, select a disk on which to create a partition. Partition disk selection page Note that this wizard page represents physical disks actually connected to your PC. The next page shows logical disks or partitions on the selected physical disk.
On the next Select Partitions wizard page, select the disk partition s whose space you want to use to create a new partition. This means that if these partitions have free space, their size can be reduced. As a result, the freed space will be automatically considered as unallocated not used by any partitions. A new partition can be created in this space.
When creating a partition with the switch set to Free space of the existing partitions, you provide a small partition size. If it is possible to create it using unallocated disk space, the partition will be created this way; the existing partitions will not be resized. If a partition cannot be created using unallocated space only, then the deficit will be taken from existing partitions. Automatic Partition Operations In this case, you will have to return to the previous wizard page and select a different partition from which to take the necessary space.
Further actions for partition creation are the same as described in 3. Clicking Finish on the last wizard page allows Acronis Disk Director Suite to create a pending operation list for new partition creation these actions may only modify an existing operation. The list will include not only the operation of partition creation itself, but also operations of partition resizing for creating a new partition.
If you want to create a new partition and there is no free space on disks: Run the create partition wizard, by clicking Create a new partition. Automatic Partition Operations Click Finish on the last wizard page to allow Acronis Disk Director Suite to create a pending operation list for new partition creation these actions may only modify an existing operation.
The Increase free space wizard will enable you to enlarge a partition using other partitions' free space. If there is not enough free space in other partitions, it can use unallocated disk space. If you need to increase partition free space: 1. Run the Increase free space wizard by selecting Wizards Increase free space or a similar item in the Wizards sidebar list or by clicking Increase free space on a partition on the toolbar.
On the Select Partition To Increase wizard page, select a partition that you want to enlarge. Selecting a partition to increase free space 3. On the Select Partitions wizard page, select a disk partition whose space will be used to increase the selected partition. Automatic Partition Operations «Enlarging a partition at the expense of another partition» is described above: see 3. Selecting a partition to use to increase free space 4.
On the next wizard page, you will see the maximum size available for the selected partition. You must select the size yourself. Automatic Partition Operations Note that although selected partition size is increased at the expense of other partition space, unallocated space also will be used if needed.
Unallocated space is automatically considered to be the maximum partition size. In the last Preview wizard window, you will see a graphical representation of the new partition structure, including the resized partition. Clicking Finish on the last wizard page will allow Acronis Disk Director Suite to create the pending operation list for partition resizing your actions may only modify an existing operation.
Similar to creating a new partition see 3. The copy partition wizard will let you create a partition copy on the selected disk space. It can be created on unallocated disk space or at the expense of existing partition space, inserted between other partitions or resized after comparison with the original. It can also change the type or file system and assign a label or a letter if needed. If you need to copy a partition: 1. Run the wizard by selecting Wizards Copy partition or a similar item in the Wizards sidebar list, or by clicking Copy a partition on the toolbar.
On the Select Partition To Copy wizard page, select a partition to copy. Automatic Partition Operations Selecting a partition to copy 3. On the next Partition Location wizard page, a record of copied partition parameters will be created.
The page for selecting a disk location for partition copy You will have to select a copy location on one of the disks, among existing partitions. To make your selection, click before or after a partition to mark where you want to locate the copy. You can locate a copy anywhere on your disk s. The copy partition wizard will automatically perform all necessary operations, even if it has to resize or move other partitions. The selected disk might lack space for a copy. Nevertheless, you can copy a partition by selecting another partition whose space will be partly used.
This can be done in the Select Partitions window. Automatic Partition Operations The page to select a partition, which will be partly used for a copy location If you do not select a partition to be partly used as the copy location on the Select Partitions wizard page and there is not enough unallocated disk space, you will see an error message: Error message showing not enough disk space for a partition copy In that case, the wizard will prompt you to select a partition from which to take some space.
If there is not enough space, the partition will not be copied! On the next Partition Size wizard page, you can provide a desired size. The wizard will automatically determine the minimum and maximum copy size. The page for partition copy size selection The minimum copy size is determined by the data area size of a copied partition.
The maximum size is determined by the available disk space. It includes the space taken from a partition and unallocated disk space. On the next Partition Type wizard page, you can select partition copy type: Active, Primary and Logical. As a rule, Primary is selected if a partition contains an operating system. If a partition is intended for data storage, you should select Logical. Further actions for copying a partition are the same as described in sections of 3.
As a result, some shortcuts might stop working. For a detailed discussion of partition letter assignment rules for various operating systems, see 3. Clicking Finish on the last wizard page will allow Acronis Disk Director Suite to create the pending operation list for copying a partition your actions may only modify an existing operation.
Manual Partition Operations Chapter 4. Manual Partition Operations Unlike the «Automatic partition operations» mode see 2. Manual operation parameters are entered in the dialog boxes. Note that the Create partition wizard mentioned above can create a partition using both unallocated disk space and the space of existing partitions see 3.
It will enable you to create a partition on unallocated space only. If there is no such space, it should be provided by resizing and moving existing partitions. If you need to create a disk partition: 1. Select hard disk and unallocated space in the Acronis Disk Director Suite main window. The Create partition button will become available on the toolbar, and the Create Partition operation on the sidebar and in the context menu.
Selecting unallocated disk space 2. Select Disk Create partition or a similar item in the Operations sidebar list, or click Create partition on the toolbar. Manual Partition Operations 3. In the Create Partition window, enter a partition label and select a file system and partition type Primary — Logical from the list; you can also enter partition size and location using a mouse or by direct input to Partition size, Unallocated space before and Unallocated space after fields.
As a rule, Primary is selected if a partition is to contain an operating system. If a partition is meant for data storage, Logical should be selected.
Created partition parameters window 4. By clicking OK, you'll add the pending operation of new partition creation. A detailed discussion of partition letter assignment rules for various operating systems appears in 3. Manual Partition Operations 1. Select a hard disk and a partition to copy. Selecting a partition to copy 2. Select Disk Copy or a similar item in the Operations sidebar list or click Copy the selected partition to another free space on the toolbar. Acronis Disk Director Suite will automatically compare the size of a copied partition and disk free space as shown in the Copy Partition window.
Free space available for copying Note that the unallocated space is smaller than copied partition size, but its data area is smaller than unallocated space. Therefore copying is possible. If there is not enough free space to copy a partition on a hard disk, no unallocated space will be available for selection. Manual Partition Operations 4.
Select the unallocated disk space to copy a selected partition to it. In the next wizard page, enter partition copy type Logical — Primary , size and location. While copying a partition, you might have to change its type. For example, you have to copy a primary partition, but there are already four primary partitions on the disk. You will be able to copy it only as a logical partition. If you need to restore the primary partition from a copy, you will be able to change its type again.
Entering partition copy parameters The size and location of a partition copy can be provided with a mouse or by entering data into the Unallocated space before, Partition size and Unallocated space after fields. By clicking OK in the Copy Partition wizard, you'll add the pending operation of partition copying and location your actions may only undo or modify already existing operation; see 2. If you move this partition closer to the beginning of a disk, OS might work much faster with it.
This operation is enabled in Windows operating systems, and is disabled under bootable media. Defragmentation increases the system performance by consolidating fragmented files on a volume. Fragmentation occurs when the operating system cannot allocate enough contiguous space to store.
Acronis Disk Director does not perform defragmentation itself, rather it launches the Disk. Defragmenter tool Defrag. Right click the volume you need to defragment, and then click Defragment. In the Defragmentation window, click OK to start defragmenting the volume.
Depending on the amount of fragmented files, the defragmentation may take a long time to. The results will be displayed in a separate window. The source disk volumes can be cloned to the target disk "as is", or resized automatically with respect to the target disk size.

After reading this section, you will know the advantages and limitations of each possible volume configuration. In addition, you will be able to decide what types of disks and volumes best suit your needs for organizing data storage. In this section Basic and dynamic disks Types of basic volumes Types of dynamic volumes Active, system, and boot volumes Dynamic volume types support Working with disks having a 4-KB sector size Basic and dynamic disks Each disk on your machine can be one of two types: basic or dynamic.
Basic disks This is the type of disk that most computers originally have. Basic disks can normally be used by any operating system, including any version of Windows. A basic disk can store one or more volumes called basic volumes.
A basic volume cannot occupy more than one disk. When to use basic disks: On a machine that has only one hard disk drive On a machine that runs an older Windows operating system, or an operating system other than Windows By using Acronis Disk Director, you can convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk p.
Dynamic disks These disks provide a greater functionality as compared to basic disks. Dynamic disks can be used only by the Windows operating systems starting with Windows A dynamic disk can store one or more volumes called dynamic volumes. Unlike a basic volume, a dynamic volume can occupy more than one disk. When to use dynamic disks. Dynamic disks are most effective if your machine has more than one hard disk drive.
In this case, you can: Create a large volume that occupies several disks. Add fault-tolerance to your system and data, by mirroring a volume such as the one with the operating system to another disk. If a disk with one of these mirrors fails, no data will be lost on such volume. You may need to do so, for example, to install an operating system other than Windows on that disk. Converting a dynamic disk to basic may require deleting some volumes on it, such as volumes that occupy more than one disk.
The main difference between a primary volume and a logical volume is that a primary volume can be used as the system or active volume that is, a volume from which the machine or its Windows operating systems start. On each basic GPT p.
The maximum volume size on a GPT disk is 16 exabytes. The maximum volume size on an MBR disk is 2 terabytes. If you are not planning to use more than four volumes on the disk, all volumes can be primary volumes. Otherwise, you can leave the active volume and the system volume as primary volumes, and then create as many logical volumes as required.
If the disk already has four primary volumes and you need to create a fifth volume, first convert one of the volumes but not the system or active volume to a logical volume, as described in Converting a primary volume to logical p. Simple volume A volume p. Physically, a simple volume can occupy more than one region of disk space, which can be logically perceived as a single contiguous region. When you extend a simple volume to another disk, the volume becomes a spanned volume p. When you add a mirror to a simple volume, the volume becomes a mirrored volume p.
Spanned volume A volume that consists of disk space from two or more dynamic disks p. A spanned volume can reside on up to 32 disks. Unlike mirrored p. Unlike striped volumes p. Access to data on striped volumes is usually faster than on other types of dynamic volumes, because it can be performed simultaneously on multiple hard disks. Unlike a mirrored volume p. A striped volume is also known as a RAID-0 volume.
Mirrored volume A fault-tolerant volume whose data is duplicated on two physical disks p. Each of the two parts of a mirrored volume is called a mirror. All of the data on one disk is copied to another disk to provide data redundancy. If one of the hard disks fails, the data can still be accessed from the remaining hard disks. Volumes that can be mirrored include the system volume p. A mirrored volume is sometimes called a RAID-1 volume. Note: No redundancy provided by the dynamic volumes architecture can replace the proper backup procedure.
If you want to be sure of the safety of your data, the best policy is to combine both precautions. During a search, you can ignore letter case as well as search for a given line at a given offset inside the sector. This list is shown closed and dropped down below. The closed and dropped-down list of encodings The list of encodings is intended for correct interpretation of hard disk sector contents.
Page Chapter 7. Working With Acronis Os Selector The software will also automatically set the parameters and properties for every OS found see section 7. You can run Acronis OS Selector by clicking the respective item in the tools section of the Acronis Disk Director Suite main window sidebar or in the main menu.
To do so, press F6 immediately after turning on the computer, before the first messages will appear on the screen. If needed, you can set them by manually clicking Properties in the Operations section of the main window sidebar, boot menu, the respective main menu, toolbar or context menu items. Page 86 7. To hide a partition, select it and enable the Hidden option for it.
This is not applicable to Windows partitions. You can perform this operation under that operating system using the Advanced section. If you connect a live Page 88 7. System folders contain files required for an operating system to work properly.

Folders properties window Enable — enable folder contents recovery at bootup; Page 90 Files properties window Properties of system files will provide you with the following options: Automatic deletion of a selected file with Acronis OS Selector under the given OS. This might become necessary when two system files are in conflict, causing possible OS bootup problems.
Shortcuts enable you to create several different configurations for the same operating system. Shortcut parameters are set in the same way as those of the operating system.
When detecting Linux, choose the partition containing Linux loader. Page Renaming Operating Systems 7. Page 96 Startup options window 7. Using the Default parameter, the program automatically determines installed input devices. Page Chapter 8. Page During installation, the Windows bootable part will automatically place itself on the primary partition you have previously set as active. When you boot either version of Windows using Acronis OS Selector later, each OS in the list will recognize the partition where its bootable part is located as active.
Page Leave your existing Windows copies as is, select No, add new operating system. When a new OS is configured, click Proceed to confirm operations selected. If Acronis OS Selector can't automatically determine the location of system folders, you will have to provide the information manually.
System folders might be located on Page After selecting the loader location, you will have to remember that once placed into the MBR, it will overwrite the Acronis OS Selector boot record, making it inoperable until reactivated from a bootable CD or diskette see 8.
For example, after installing the Windows operating system that overwrites the hard disk Master Boot Record and thus prevents invoking Acronis OS Selector at bootup. To solve this problem, just reactivate Acronis OS Selector using a bootable disk.
Page PXE server, specify the server and provide the user name and password to access 5. Next, the program will calculate how many blank disks are required in case you have not chosen ISO or PXE and give you time to prepare them. When you are finished, click Proceed. Page Appendix A.
Hard Disk And File Systems This design has a lot of technical implementation peculiarities, but those issues are not germane to this explanation. Page Hard Disk Partition The number of primary partitions on a disk is limited, because the partition table contains four records itself.
Extended partitioning supports additional division into logical partitions. The amount of logical partitions is unlimited. Page Primary Partitions You cannot, however, change partition structure by means of the Windows operating system. To do this, you will need software such as Acronis Disk Director Suite. It lets you resize, move, hide partitions, set them as active, copy and perform other operations without losing any data or causing any OS and application workability problems.
Page File Systems A. Each system is briefly discussed. This information can help you work with Acronis Disk Director Suite. Page Initially, FAT16 had limitations to file names that could only be eight characters long, plus a dot, plus three characters of name extension. However, long name support in Windows 95 and Windows NT bypasses this limitation. Page and bit architectures. ReiserFS overcomes many Ext2 disadvantages. It is a bit journaling file system that dynamically allocates space for data substructures.
