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. 

5. 

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. See 2.4.5 «Modifying pending 
operations»).  

The new partition structure will be graphically represented in the Acronis 
Disk Director Suite main window. 

 

Similar to creating a new partition (see 3.1 «Creating A New Partition»), Acronis Disk 

Director Suite considers the results of partition free space increase as a single 

complex operation that can be undone only as a whole. 

Having copied a partition, you get the duplicate of all its data. Partition copy can 
be used: 

•  As a partition backup (or rather as a data backup) 
•  A system partition backup is advised if you want to upgrade the existing 

operating system 

•  To quickly move all data from the old disk to the new disk
