RAID?
Presumably it allows the resizing of partitions on a RAID5 array on a Win 2003 Server? I've got a server running out of space on its system partition but with plenty of space on another partition so I might soon be in need of something like this!

RAID?
PM Server will allow you to resize these partitions in Windows. There is a demo version on the Easeus web site which won't apply changes but will confirm whether they can be made.

Cheers - I'll download it and have a look.

RAID 5 success
After reading the review I downloaded and tried the demo which was successful then ran the full version (Server Edition). On a HP ML180 with 5 drives (Raid 5) totalling 135GB the re-partitioning worked perfectly. The original setup was C: 10GB & D: 125GB.
The new setup is C: 20GB & D: 115GB.
I started the process at 8am and it was still running at 5.30pm. The following morning it had completed and was waiting at the login screen. One final reboot was required after logging in but it worked seamlessly.
