This is not Norton Partition Magic, but the alternative partition software for Windows Server system, although Windows Server 2008 added Extend Volume and Shrink Volume in disk management, it's still not a powerful tool to satisfy partition missions, especially when low disk space alert shows to Server system partition. Server manager disk management and diskpart command line are of less help on this problem; actually, you can solve system partition running out of space problem by few clicks in Partition Expert.
