Do you need help getting your hard disk in shape? Would you like a dramatically better defragmentation tool than the one that comes with Windows? Want to partition your hard drive with ease? Need to clean your disk of junk files?
You've come to the right place. ZDNet Downloads offers a host of hard-disk helpers. Here are three of my favorites.
Paragon Partition Manager handles all kinds of partitioning chores, including creating new partitions, and resizing existing ones. It also lets you convert FAT32 to FAT16, or NTFS to FAT/FAT32--and vice versa. (Shareware/Windows)
Diskeeper is a great tool that defragments system files in addition to the usual defrag chores, and lets you schedule dates and times of defragmentation. One of the best features: It automatically figures out when you need to defragment your hard drive. (Shareware/Windows)
