OS X-based computers already come with integrated partitioning features but these are limited to basic tasks. Mac users have limited possibilities for modifying the partition table after its creation, unable to resize file systems other than HFS+ or change partition properties. Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac overcomes all of these limitations by allowing users to move partitions, resize partitions, undelete (recover deleted volumes), and modify volume properties.

The software comes with advanced system partitioning features to assist users in performing drive partitioning of any complexity, with concise and explicit information conveniently presented in pop-up dialog boxes available to make the user’s job easier, Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac handles all system and data partitioning tasks. These start with the basics — create, format, and delete — then move up in sophistication to allow partitions to be undeleted, resized, moved, and copied. You can resize partitions, copy your entire drive or a partition, and even securely wipe it. An entire partition or just its free space can be wiped, or its file system checked for integrity. All partitioning operations can be performed on hard drives and SSDs of any capacity.

Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac delivers the ability to format volumes in any of the common file systems (HFS+, NTFS, ExtFS, FAT 16/FAT 32 and exFAT). It can also convert between MBR, GPT, and hybrid GPT+MBR partitioning schemes; and correct Windows boot issues, including those occurring when moving the operating system to new hardware.

Additionally, users of Apple’s Boot Camp utility will benefit in Paragon Hard Disk Manager’s ability to easily resize Boot Camp partitions. Mac users can redistribute the available space between OS X and Windows partitions rapidly without data loss, quickly and easily adding free gigabytes to partitions used by either operating system. Advanced users will appreciate the ability to view and edit disk sectors.

With Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac, users can migrate Windows OS from one Mac computer to another. Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac supports Core Storage and works efficiently with Fusion Drive equipped Macs, as well as those using FileVault encryption. Paragon Hard Disk Manager for Mac supports all versions of OS X from Mountain Lion onwards.
