4.  Choose the target free space. 
 
5.  Choose the parameters of the new partition in the dialog box. 
 
The dialog box for choosing the partition parameters has the same look and 
functionality as the one that appears during partition creation. Please note 
that it is impossible to change the file system (only the FAT16ÙFAT32 
conversion is possible), and that cluster size can be changed only for 
FAT16/FAT32. 
When moving a partition on the «Other» sheet, it is possible to set the mode 
when file system adjustment is not performed («Disable fitting» checkbox). 
Parameters are adjusted when the data areas of the source and destination 
partitions overlap. In this case no unnecessary data copying is done, but the 
parameters of the resulting partition may become non-standard. 
6.  
Confirm the operation by pressing the Enter key or clicking the OK 
button in the lower part of the dialog box. 
 
The creation, copying, moving and resizing partition functions of the Disk 
Administrator are fully universalized. It is possible to move a partition, resize it, and 
change the cluster size, label and file system type all in one pass. For example it is 
possible to copy a partition to a free space of smaller size, a task impossible for any 
other similar software!
