woot, iam gonna try this on a 300gb hdd !

if i have time.........next year

or maybe today

Have a look at the letters page on the same site Here. Seems all it is really doing is corrupting your partition table, ie the new partition is really on the old one. Write to the new and you corrupt your old.

nothing is for free, especially from HD manufacturers!

i'm not going to even try this

you know linux managed to expanded the hd size some how, i used mandriva 10.2 they some how managed to do that with out backing up any thing really

I thought this sounded a bit too good to be true. If anyone can fill both partitions and verify that the files aren't corrupt afterward, I might try it.

thats adefinatly a hard gamble and i think with the price of hd's being the way they are these days youd just be thowing your money in a hole
