It manages to crash my son's laptop completely,
By
This review is from: Paragon Hard Disk Manager 2008 Suite [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
It works for my PC desktop perhaps because my desktop has plenty spaces left (60GB) but it has some quirks when I tries to defrag my son's laptop. The laptop has 40GB hard drive and only has 3.5 GB spaces left because the kid has a ton of animate movies downloaled. It doesn't complain about there is not enough space to defrag but instead going its normal way to restart then defrag the drive. Later it bombs out and complains that there is not enough space. What a stupid software because it should be possible to calculate the spaces required for a task.
That should be a telltale sign about its weakness but I was to preoccupy with something else so I delete and compress some files to raise empty spaces up to 5+ GBytes then defrag the drive again. This time, it complains that it has read errors and the laptop now can't boot up. I don't really know what it did, perhaps it overwrites the boot table, the MFT etc because after I remove the hard drive and connect it to my desktop as an USB drive, there is nothing on the drive, no directories, no files, nothing. All's gone. I've never seen a defragment software that causes a problem like this in my 30 years plus dealing with computers because there is always safeguard to move sector by sector, so the worse you can get is one file lost. Not the whole drive like this. Needless to say, I remove the Paragon hard disk suite off my computers forever.

Over promises and Under Delivers,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paragon Hard Disk Manager 2008 Suite [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I purchased this product because Norton Ghost did NOT handle my issue. I am attempting to migrate my entire disk (So I do not have to re-install Windows and other software etc) on a bigger hard drive for a Lenovo Laptop.
Paragon's web site says that hidden partitions / recovery partitions will transfer seamlessly. Well it does not work as promised. In fact, it simply does not work for my purposes. I am still looking for real migration software that will copy bit for bit. IF I really get stuck I can always mount both disks onto a linux box and copy that way, but one would think that this is not necessary. Read Paragon's web site and see all the features they *SAY* it works then understand that it may not.

Great disk management tool,
This review is from: Paragon Hard Disk Manager 2008 Suite [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I have been using Paragon disk management software for over 5 years. This is my third upgrade in this product line and it has evolved into a superior and must have product.
