Does anyone know if it is possible to revise the size of a partition on an external drive without damaing or losing data on both partitions, as long as you have not choosen a partition size that is smaller than the amount of data on the partition??

Thanks

While it can be done, and most times painlessly, please note - things can and do go wrong - it is best practice to have your data backed up prior to modifying partitions - without it - you takes your chances - not the company making the software.
