Partition settings

Specify the settings for the partition being created.

Size

You can resize and relocate the partition being created.

If you want to resize the partition:

Point the cursor at the partition border. If the cursor is pointed exactly at the partition border, it
will change into two vertical lines with arrows on each side.

Hold down the left mouse button and drag the selected partition border to enlarge or reduce the
partition size.

You can also set the size of the partition manually, by typing-in the desired partition size in the
Partition Size field.

If you want to relocate the partition:

Point the cursor at the partition. The cursor will change into a crosshair.

Hold down the left mouse button and drag the partition until you get the necessary size of the
Free space before and/or Free space after fields. You can also set the amount of unallocated
space before or after the selected partition by manually typing-in the necessary value in the
respective fields.

If you create one or more logical drives, the program will reserve some unallocated space for system needs in
front of the created partition(s). If you create a primary partition or a primary partition together with a logical
one then no unallocated space will be reserved for system needs.
