PLEASE NOTE: Operations on system, application or data partitions must be done very
carefully to avoid potential hard disk booting or data storage problems.
Acronis Disk Director Server has been thoroughly tested to work with numerous hard
disks, so if problems arise, they are likely caused by improper use, not the software.
A power loss, turning off the PC or pressing the Reset button on your PC during the
repartitioning procedure could result in partition damage and data loss.
