There’s a default Disk Management Software in the windows with some pretty basic features, which hardly fulfill the needs to perform some advanced operations. Here comes the solution of everything - Easeus Partition Master Professional. Undoubtedly Easeus is one of the most popular disk management solutions, where two of their product - Easeus Partition Master Home Edition & Easeus Data Recovery Wizard Free Edition are ranked 1st and 3rd respectively in the CNet’s Popular File Management downloads. There’s certainly a reason behind it.
Interface
Nothing much special, but every function is presented clearly and easy to navigate. Both Menu Bar and Tool Bar are placed at the top, with some main features displayed at the right side of the Tool Bar, making it easier to perform some regular tasks. There’s a feature list to show all the operations, as well as a disk map & legend bar which display the graphic map of all recognized disk(s) and partition(s).
Features
There are some new features in Easeus Partition Master Professional 9.0, such as partitions merging, RAID 5 dynamic volume repairing, and dynamic volume resizing. These useful features definitely make Easeus Partition Master Product lines become more attractive and solid. “Merge partition” is a great feature that I’m glad to see in this new version, as it is useful to merge small partitions into bigger ones when there is insufficient space to use.
You can basically perform any operations on your partition(s) by using Easeus Partition Master Professional. Some basic ones include formatting, removing, creating, moving, and wiping unallocated disk space. For example, when you are resizing partition, you can easily slide the disk map to decide its size and position.
Besides, Easeus Partition Master Professional 9.0 too has a number of advanced operations. Some notable ones such as MBR rebuilding (useful for damaged disk), partition recovery wizard, set active (specify boot partition), and command line (for geeky users).
Additional Features
You also can find a disk defragment tool in Easeus Partition Master, which comes in handy. Furthermore, you can change label/drive letter, hide partition, explore partition, surface test (check for bad sectors), and many other more.
Lastly, Easeus Partition Master Professional 9 too comes with a bootable disk, and you can choose to have either Linux or WinPE. WinPE bootable disk certainly has more features compare to Linux bootable disk, but you have to pay extra $20 for it. Anyway, both are really useful when your computer failed to boot normally.
Conclusion
Easeus Partition Master Professional 9 is a well-documented disk management software which is built with a complete set of great utilities. There’s a 50 pages long user guide which explains every single functions clearly and you can refer it whenever you’re confused. It doesn’t have a fancy interface, yet with $19.95 (Easeus Partition Master Professional 9 with Linux bootable disk), it’s worth every single penny.
