at numerous forums on the Internet and then ignite serious debate about how to properly split must be done the hard drive.During the existence of this issue it has already been expressed many opinions that it fit to write extensive scientific work.However, it is too early to put a point.Perhaps the issue of "the breakdown of hard disk", each user chooses a method which is the most appropriate for him to complete a specific range of tasks.This rule is necessary to remember constantly, even reading the recommendations most respected authors.
Before we examine what is the breakdown of hard disk, let's remember the theory.Modern hard disk drives according to the principle of operation is divided into two types - with magnetic plates and through productive flash memory.The first is located inside the housing the electric motor, which is mounted on a spindle multiple disks with special coating.Secondly used an array of memory cells.In order to be able to work with these devices must be pre-made soft breakdown HDD.Only after this operation, operating systems can "see" the connected hard drive, read and write data from it.
Surprisingly, the main difficulty lies in the selection of any program for the breakdown, and the decision on the future structure.In the first case, a disk can be recovered all the available - for example, to the hard drive of 100 GB disk will be created "C" size of 100 GB.Another option - the same 100 GB might be divided into several logical drives.The choice of the solution depends on the user.
Imagine a hard drive with a single partition - a sheet of A3.It can draw anything you want.But in order to navigate the large number of figures, they have to somehow group.
But a breakdown into several sections can be compared with the fact that the sheet is cut into four A3 A5 and affixed their staples.The advantage is that each sheet can be used for certain subjects of drawings, but the search in this case loses clarity, and in filling any sheet having difficulty with the placement of new drawings on it.
So, how to split your hard disk partitions?Windows 7, for example, allows you to do this built-in.The proposed tool has a basic set of features, so the flexible configuration is not out of the question, but to cope with this task quite successfully.On the icon "Computer" click right mouse button (RMB), following in the "Management".In the column "Computer Management", select "Disk Management" and call the property (RMB).This will return all the possible commands for working with Tom.The utility runs very slowly, so it's worth a lot of patience and a cup of hot tea.
your partitions of Windows 7 can be more convenient and faster way.You will need to download a specialized program.Now very popular Disc Director of Acronis' and almost similar in functionality Partition Manager from Paragon.Their main drawback - it is spread on a fee basis.But now for many users, this is not an insoluble problem.The program can be installed and running in the operating system environment that ensures high compatibility, as well as through solutions based LiveCD, including those programs.It should be noted that sometimes you may need to change the hard drive mode "AHCI - IDE" in the BIOS of the motherboard.With thoughtful use of software features you can perform almost any action with sections without losing the on-disk information (though backup is still preferable).
