Protected mode

It’s recommended to use protected mode, which is enabled by default. In this mode, everything you want to do is first placed in a queue, with changes applied only after user verification. You don’t have to wait for an operation to finish before you can move on, since some operations can take time to complete. More importantly, you can go back one step at a time in case of problems, or to undo any changes already made.

Resize partitions on the fly

Paragon Hard Disk Manager allows you to resize hard disk partitions on the fly to maximize available storage capacity.

Clean up media

When disposing of an old computer, it’s a good idea to first wipe personal data. Hard Disk Manager (HDM) makes this task a snap by irreversibly destroying data stored on a device. Alternatively, you can opt only to clean unused space (in which case deleted files can still be restored), while keeping useful data intact. You may be surprised to learn how much data leakage occurs from the negligence of this simple rule.

Live transfer your systems and data

Suppose you change your old mechanical hard disk drive (HDD) to a fast new solid-state storage device (SSD). With Hard Disk Manager (HDM), you choose where you want Windows to be, and it is ready to run. You can even continue working on your system while Windows is being relocated! No manual operations or reboots are necessary – switch over when ready.
