Redistribute Free Space Wizard
The Redistribute free space wizard spreads the free space on a hard disk evenly across
partitions. Free space refers to unused space within partitions and space that is not
allocated to any partition. You can redistribute free space on one hard disk at a time. You
cannot redistribute free space across several disks.
For information about redistributing free space without the wizard, see “Resizing and
Moving Partitions” on page 29.
Merge Partitions Wizard
The Merge Partitions wizard helps you merge two adjacent FAT, FAT32, or NTFS
partitions. You choose two partitions, and one will be expanded to include the second. The
contents of the second partition are added as a folder inside the first partition.
Norton recommends that you run a file check (such as CheckDisk or ScanDisk) on the
partitions to be merged before running the wizard and that you run DriveMapper to update
drive letter references after merging partitions. The wizard will prompt you to run
DriveMapper automatically.
Copy Partition Wizard
The Copy Partition wizard helps you duplicate a partition. The copy is the same size and
file type and contains the same data as the original. When you copy a partition, you
specify the hard disk and the unallocated space where you want to place the copy. If
necessary, the wizard will resize neighboring partitions to create sufficient space to
perform the copy.
