What is GParted?
GParted is a GTK+ frontend to GNU Parted and the official GNOME Partition Editor application. It is used for creating, deleting, resizing, moving, checking and copying partitions, and the file systems on them. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, copying data residing on hard disks and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging).
GParted is developed on GNU/Linux. It can be used on other operating systems, such as Windows or Mac OS X, by booting from media containing GParted Live, which can be installed on CD, USB, PXE server, and Hard Disk then run on an x86 machine.
The bootable image is called GParted Live and enables all the features of the GParted application.

Used it around 10 times already for resizing and moving partitions, didn't lose any data so far.
It's the main concern about this kind of software, isn't it?
I have used it countless times to resize the partitions on my computer, both ext4 and ntfs, never had any problems. Also easy to understand.
Couldn't get this to load. I tried safe graphics, failsafe, load to ram, etc, every option on the disk. I know Linux has problems with my video card and I'm not a guru to figure it out.
GParted offers so much capability to work with hard drives. Powerful.
GParted can be also used on Windows and MacOS through GParted Live bootable image.
> The best way to access all of the features of the GParted application is by using the GParted Live bootable image. GParted Live enables you to use GParted on GNU/Linux as well as other operating systems, such as Windows or Mac OS X.

However, MiniTool Partition Wizard is highly suggested alternative to look at for Windows users.
Great free tool. It's easy to use and does not have feature bloat like Easeus and some of the other products. It's also an open source product and not a "teaser" home version.
