    D Drive

    Why is there a separate D drive and why is it larger than C drive? I believe the C drive holds the program files right now. The C Drive holds approx. 120 GB while the D Drive is 915 GB. There is also an E Recovery Drive of 15 GB. Where should I put my
    data?

    D Drive

    Thank you, RAJU.MSC for your answer. I don’t know if it is necessary to steal/partition drive D or even if I would be comfortable doing that.
    It may be easier to just do as DaveM121 suggests and use Drive D for my data and keep the 128 GB ssd drive C for downloads and programs as it is much quicker.
    Your thoughts?

    partitioning c and d drives

    can anyone explain why my d drive has 759 GB

    and my c drive 239 GB

    is there any logical reason for this type of partitioning?

    What can i do with D drive, how can i utilize this 759 GB of space?
