Selective Restore: Extract individual files and folders from an archive without restoring an entire image. Use the Restore Wizard and simply check the files that you'd like to restore.
Split partitions: You can separate OS and data or different types of data by splitting one partition to two different partitions of the same type and file system
Merge Partitions: Consolidate the disk space, from two adjacent partitions (NTFS, FAT16/FAT32), into a single, larger partition
