I used gparted once on a Vista machine and afterwards it needed repairing (using the install DVD) before it would boot. I tossed the gparted CD in the trash.

Please make sure you backup your data before running GParted. Ug.

I've only tried gparted on a raid once. It was a raid 1 and insted of seeing it as one drive to adjust the partiton it showed it as two identical drives with identical partitions.. I decided not to use it because I didn't know what would happen if I resized the system partition on both drives of the raid 1. It was a production box and didn't want to screw it up. I just got two new servers for a client and will have to test it on one after I load the OS.
