Shrink partition to minimal size
To effectively shrink a partition, run an optimization before continuing
with the modification. Files will be moved physically to the “front” of
the volume, which increases the distance of the last file to the end of the
volume. This results in the maximum shrinking level. Optimization is ba-
sed on the technology of our multiple award-winning defragmentation
program O&O Defrag.

Delete data securely
Whenever you delete data, they become “invisible” to your system.
However, your data still exist on your hard disk. You should be especial-
ly cautious, if you want to give away or sell your computer. If you really
want to make sure that your data is irrevocably deleted, use O&O Safe-
Erase, the integrated deletion application. Data deleted with the help of
this tool cannot be restored, even with special data rescue software.

O&O PartitionManager with O&O DiskImage
The O&O PartitionManager offers comprehensive partition and data
security management in combination with O&O DiskImage. First, create
separate partitions for the Server operating system and for your perso-
nal or business data. After that, you will be able to create images of your
data partitions at regular intervals with the help of O&O DiskImage.
Rest assured that your entire dataset and any modifications to it will be
captured. In addition, you can create an image of your system partition
separately, before installing additional programs or download new dri-
vers. This level of protection will allow you to change Server configura-
tions, create new profiles or try out software with total peace of mind.

Advantages of stripe sets, mirror volumes and RAID 5 volumes
A stripe set (RAID 0) stores data alternating on stripes on the selected
disk. Since the load is distributed, data is written and read faster on a
stripe set than on a basic e or a spanned volume. The mirror volume
(RAID 1), on the other hand writes identical data on indicated disks. The
data is “mirrored” from one disk, e.g. hard disk to another. This proce-
dure produces a “security copy”, which comes in handy in the event of
a disk malfunction. A RAID 5 volume is a mixture of RAID 0 and RAID
1. It increases the speed of processing and provides a backup copy of
written data. As a result, RAID 5 is not only able to perform better, but
is very fail-safe as well. To have a RAID 5 volume, you’ll need at least
three disks.
