Yes, it is completly safe, (Version 5) And will not lose any data at
all.

You are correct that WinXP does not lose data, it does this by
modifing the first section of the drive only, and files are not converted
until use, though thry appear to have been converted, this saves on
time. (Like a quick format when installing)

So basicly it does on the fly conversion sector by sector until the
drive is converted completly. Where as utils like Partition Magic do
the entire drive at once.
