    Hi, I'm having a problem here with my hard drives and/partitions.

    I currently have just 2 Hard drives. One of 250GB for my main OS (SSD) and my Storage Hard Drive of 1TB (SSD). I have Windows 10 Pro Version 1903. This showed recently and I'm not sure what's the cause. Both Partition master and Windows Defrag show these extra volumes/Partition/Hard drive and I'm not sure what they are. I've been installing also a lot of stuff and I not sure.

    I want some advice on what that might be. It shows as not formated, but I can't edit it.

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

    Having a problem with Windows 10 Partitions and Hard Drives

    Partition or multiple hard drives?

    As the title suggests. Is it worth installing say a 36GB drive for the OS soley or partitioning an existing larger drive with either 2 or more partitions? I am currently running Vista 32bit and want to try out 64bit and am sick of reformatting the whole drive. Any suggestions?
