Hi pals, I want to show you how to partition a hard drive without formatting your Windows 7 and later operating systems. The basic advantage of partitioning a hard drive is to prevent losing data, in a case where your computer gets attacked by the virus, u just format the windows partition that is the Local Disk (C:) without having to touch your file partition.
Without wasting any time lets get to work.
click on start,>>>right click on "computer",>>>click on manage,
step 1
click "disk management" on the Computer Management console,
step 2
step 3
locate the drive you want to split,
let us say your computer has just one partition and you want to split that partition into two,
right-click on the drive and click shrink volume,
right-click on the drive and click shrink volume,
step 4
step 5
Enter the amount of space you want to shrink,
Note: you can't shrink more than the size available to shrink,
then click shrink,>>>after shrinking, you will see an unallocated partition,
'
step 6
Right-click on it and click new simple volume,>>>click next,
Enter the size of disk you wish to create in megabytes and click next,>>>change the Volume label to anything you wish and click next,>>>then finish.
Check the number of drives you have.
That will be all for now.
