GParted (acronym of GNOME Partition Editor) is a GTK front-end to GNU Parted and an official GNOME partition-editing application (alongside Disks). GParted is used for creating, deleting, [ 3 ] resizing, [ 4 ] moving, checking, and copying disk partitions and their file systems .
GParted uses GNU Parted in the backend. nparted is the newt-based frontend to GNU Parted. [3] Projects have started for an ncurses frontend, [4] that also could be used in Windows (with GNUWin32 Ncurses). [5] fatresize offers a command-line interface for FAT16/FAT32 non-destructive resize and uses the GNU Parted library. [6]
GNOME Disks is a graphical front-end for udisks. [3] It can be used for partition management, S.M.A.R.T. monitoring, benchmarking, and software RAID (until v. 3.12). [4] An introduction is included in the GNOME Documentation Project.
GParted is a popular utility used for disk partitioning. Disk partitioning or disk slicing [1] is the creation of one or more regions on secondary storage, so that each region can be managed separately. [2] These regions are called partitions.
GParted [citation needed] and Parted Magic both include hdparm. [4] Changing hardware parameters from suboptimal conservative defaults to their optimal settings can improve performance greatly. For example, turning on DMA can, in some instances, double or triple data throughput.
The foundation produces educational materials and documentation to help the public learn about GNOME software. In addition, it sponsors GNOME-related technical conferences, such as GUADEC , GNOME.Asia, and the Boston Summit, represents GNOME at relevant conferences sponsored by others, helps create technical standards for the project, and ...
