To move a partition

1. Select a disk and a partition.
2. Click Partition > Resize / Move.
The current size of the partition is shown on a disk map at the top of the dialog box. The map also depicts the used and unused space within the partition and the free space surrounding the partition (if any exists). The minimum and maximum sizes for the partition appears below the map.
3. Position the mouse pointer on the partition.
The mouse pointer changes to a four-headed arrow .
4. Drag the partition to the location you want.
5. Click OK.

Tips
1. In step 4, you can also move the partition by specifying new values in the Free Space Before, and Free Space After text boxes. The values you type may change slightly to values supported by your drive's geometry.
Also, there must be free space adjacent to the partition in order to move it. If there is none, and the partition contains unused space, make the partition smaller and then move the partition.
2. If you know your disk has no bad sectors, you can select Skip bad sector checks in the PartitionMagic Preferences dialog box to make moving a partition faster.
3. If you want, click the Cluster Size drop-down list and select a new size or use the recommend cluster size that is already selected. PartitionMagic changes the values in the Free Space Before, New Size, and Free Space After text boxes to show how the partition size is affected. This option is only available for FAT and FAT32 partitions.
