Looking for a Partitioning program, and looking for a Formatting program

[Myhre]

I'm trying to find a really good partitioning program. Right now I'm using Partition Magic Pro 7.0 and I'm looking to upgrade. I'm also trying to find a really good drive formatting program. I've always just used my western digital config utility to write zeros but I'm looking for something that I can use in windows for my storage drives. Thanks in advance.

Partition Magic is the best thing i have used. it works wonders.

Yeah, I've loved 7.0 pro, it's awesome and I can't believe anyone would use anything else, but I know it's a few years old and was wondering if there is anything newer out there.

i dont know try going to google and enter something like "best partitioner" or something of that nature.

Partition Magic 0.8 been using it for two years now, never had a gripe with it. That WD config utility does that come with Retail drives only? 'cos I've only ever bought WD OEM drives and never come across it.

[Myhre]

Yeah it only comes with retail drives, and I'm wondering if it will work for my Raptor drives. You can download it off of WD's website though.
