I have found [link=http://www.partition-manager.com/eshop.htm]Partition Manager for $49.95[/link] to be the cheapest. There are some guys who are using this software on HWF...[link=http://www.hardwareforums.com/partition-magic-sh-12691/#post81292]Here[/link]
Of course there is. There is the GParted linux liveCD which is built SPECIFICALLY for repartitioning hard drives and fits on a business card CD. Check it out here. All you need to do is download it, burn it and boot it. Backup your stuff first though. Enjoy open source.
dont bother with partition magic. You wil be "taking it back" in no time at all. Paragon Partition Manager is what you want.
I don't see any reason for paying for partition software, unless you want someone to scream at when things go wrong.
dont get PM, its shi*. i merged two partitions on a new drive and everything on the partitions was GONE and i cudnt access the data without formatting the partition.
