Yes, there comes a number of popular hard drive partition management apps available for Mac operating system. However, majority of them are paid one. I have not seen any free Mac partition management utility that can perform all the hard disk drive partition management function say, i.e. create, delete, resize, format, wipe, hide etc. operation and that is too without giving any data loss problems. However, before that since you are a new Mac users, let’s give you a basic introduction about Mac hard disk drive or volume partition management and how to make it without any problems.
