  1. Regarding Hard Disc Drive Partition


    Hi Team,


    I just bought this Lenovo 330 i3 7th Gen laptop, which comes with pre-installed genuine windows 10 and doesn't come with a DVD Drive. so when I opened the laptop and chose all the languages and things I saw that in my "This PC" option there was already a "C drive" was created with a space of 930 GB. My laptop comes with a 1 TB Hard drive. so when I'm trying to partition the "C drive" I can only shrink 480 GB as "New Volume D" and then my "C drive" becomes 450 GB. and then I cannot shrink my "C drive" further. so I only get 480 GB as my new volume space. I don't want to allocate such large portion to "C drive". How can I allocate only 300 GB to my "C drive" and rest to my new volumes?

    :)

    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

    Regarding Hard Disc Drive Partition

    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?
