AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition Review – Previously we have reviewed the home edition (aka free edition) of AOMEI Partition Assistant. Today, we are going to write about AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition and the best part of all, there will be a license giveaway at the end of this article. Read on to find out how to win one. But first, let’s read the review, shall we?
Features of AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition
The professional edition of the partition manager (now carries version 5.1) has all the functionality of the home edition. This includes basic partitioning tasks like create, delete, format, wipe, label, hide/unhide, check partitions, convert FAT to NTFS, change drive letter, set active partition, rebuild MBR, Linux partitioning management and more. In addition, you can resize (extend or shrink partition size), move, merge, split partition and allocate free space from one partition to another.
All the options are displayed at the left sidebar of the main interface. Yes, there a lot of things that you can do with your hard disk partitions. Hope you don’t feel overwhelmed with the wide set of options. There is a Tutorial menu button to guide you with all the features.
A click on a particular hard drive partition will reveal all available tasks under the Partition Operations section.
For testing purpose, we’ve tried out the function that helps us to allocate free space from a partition to another partition. Decide the space that you want to move and hit Okay. It’s so easy and doesn’t require system reboot.
In Professional Edition, you get to use additional features that don’t include in Home Edition, like the ability to carry out partition alignment (it helps to boost performance and lifespan of a disk) and convert MBR disk to GPT and vice versa. Moreover, you can change partition type ID and serial number.
Moreover, the partition manager provides a handful of step by step wizards. There is the extend partition wizard, copy partition wizard, disk copy wizard, partition recovery wizard and make a bootable CD (for Partition Assistant) wizard. You can also quickly migrate OS to SSD or HDD with just one click. All these wizards are also available in the Home Edition.
AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition supports everything from partition removable storage devices and all hardware RAID, FAT, FAT32, NTFS file system to MBR disk up to 2TB, GPT disk up to 4TB. Last but not least, the partition manager can manage up to 32 hard drives within one system. Wow!
Selling at $36 apiece, AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional Edition is compatible with Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista, XP and Windows 2000 operating systems.
