    Split hard drive


    I have a 1tb drive with two partitions.While trying to resize the partitions I finished up with two partitions labeled "F:"File explorer sees one 1tb partition but the disk manager in control panel, sees two partitions of about 500mb each.I have tried various partition managers that either don't see the drive at all or can't do anything with it.How can I revert this drive to a single partition?

    :)

    Overclock your hard drive!!!

    Heres a much easier hack that I realized quite a few years ago that really does work!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    • Hard drive with molex power connection.
    • PSU with more than 1 strand that has molex plugs on it.
    • Wire strippers, soldering iron if you're fancy, electrical tape if you're not.
    STEPS:
    • Take the strand of connectors from your PSU, and decide which one will be the donator for this overclocking adventure.
    • Cut the yellow and orange cables, then twist them together.
    • Find the power connector you've chosen as the overclocking connector, and release the orange cable from the connector. Now use your preferred method to bind them together, then place it back together.
    • Plug in a drive and feel the speed!
    Congratulations! You've just overclocked your hard drive!
