I got now 2 drives called INTEL RAID 1 (instead WD RED ...) with the serial "RAID DATA" .... bought this software for partitioning, it is the 1st time i used this feature but it is total crap !

CHRefund policy is not honored by support I was trying to create a 5TB partition on an MBR disk (which is possible by changing the sector size to 4Kn, look it up), when it prompted to upgrade to the pro version of Partition Master. It said something like "To allocate space beyond 2TB on MBR disks the pro version is required." (the message does not show up in the pro version and I didn't manage to reset to free). I requested a refund pretty much immediately after realizing that it silently changed the partion table to GPT whenever I allocate more than 2TB. Support was not helpful at all. Seemed to not know very much about the topic (e.g. started talking about cluster size when I was talking about sector size). Specifically, they said they can't refund me because of article 6 of their refund policy which states: "Please understand that we cannot provide a refund if our product does not perform tasks it is neither intended to perform nor advertises it performs." I tried to argue that it did advertise the feature but without any luck. In conclusion, their "money-back guarantee" is pretty much a scam. The software itself might be ok - but honestly, just use literally anything else and don't waste your money on this.

GBMakes partitioning a snap! This is a great product, handles just about everything you need to manage your hard drives, migrates os to ssd and much more, all from a very nicely laid out easy to understand format.

GBEaseUS Partition Master - auto-renewal warning I bought 1 x EaseUS Partition Master Professional (1 - Month Subscription) 16.8. The first month cost 9.83 GBP. I thought I'd just bought it for one month. No. The name is misleading and they then charged me 31.45 GBP for the second month and all further months. They count on people not reading the small print. WATCH OUT for the auto-renewal. I will never use again.

GBPartition Master Pro version 14.5 I'm using Partition Master Pro version 14.5 - I have one SSD type M2 PCIe 1TB and one conventional HD 2TB. I multi-boot Win10, Fedora 32 and Linux Mint 20. I use Oracle VM ware within Windows and occasionally within Linux. I have numorous partitions to manage on this workstation and on server drives. Thus far I have encountered no issues with this application. It is a little over simplified but I realise it's intended for novice users too. The customer service has been prompt, polite and very efficient. For those who have placed negative reviews, my sympathy goes out to you. Understanding partitioning and the implications of modifying them isn't for the uninitiated, it's very apparent that many of you embarked on something with only a modicum of knowledge and no patience at all.
