hi how do you make a separate partition on your hard disk? and do you need
it? i installed a new hard drive and vista is installed on that drive,is it
worth having a separate partition?
The question of whether you should have more than one partition, is
not a question to which everyone has the same answer, and you'll find
different points of view. My view is that most people's partitioning
scheme should be based on their backup scheme. If, for example, you
backup by creating a clone or image on the entire drive, then as
single partition might be best. If, on the other hand, you backup only
your data, then the backup process is facilitated by having all data
in a separate partition.
Except for those running multiple operating systems, there is seldom
any benefit to having more than two partitions.
