Partition Magic Editor's Review Partition Magic is a computer program that allows you to slice your hard drive up into several partitions. This allows one physical disc drive to be used as if it were several drives. Once created, the partitions can be re-sized without losing any of the data stored in them. If your computer is running slowly or keeps crashing, it may benefit from using Partition Magic - if you organise your hard drive more effectively, then it will be much quicker and more reliable. Partition Magic is simple to install and has an easy-to-use interface, so you should be up and running in no time. This program does have a few compatibility issues and it does not run on Windows 7 or Windows Vista.
