For AOMEI Partition Paid Version 5.5:

1. Convert system disk between MBR and GPT styles.

GPT was introduced as part of the UEFI initiative. You may notice that the program prevents you from converting system disk, since GPT system disk only boot from UEFI motherboard, but MBR system disk could not boot from this configuration. The previous versions allow you to do such operations only on data disk, but not system disk.

2. Migrate system to SSD and support MBR and GPT disk.

This new feature allows you to migrate OS on MBR or GPT disk to new SSD, and GPT and MBR disks, while the previous versions only allow you to migrate OS on MBR disk  to SSD or MBR disk.
