I looked at it, but from what I can tell it will not move your data.  So,
the end of the drive must be completely free space.  Therefore, these
things must be done:
    - defrag the drive
    - disable windows swap
    - take care of hidden files not moved by the defrag program
    - any other special cases

I assume you have used this before?  Did these limitations make it very
easy to use?  One major drawback is the defrag.  Some drives can take hours
to defrag...
