How the computer cuts C disk into more partitions

today a lot of notebooks (including tablets) no matter how big the hard drive, but the manufacturer only left us a C disk, yes, a 500GB or even 1TB of C disk! In the event of a system failure, the data on the hard drive will be compromised. So, what's a good way to cut a huge C disk into more partitions?

Seeing this, it is estimated that many children's shoes will think of professional tools such as "Partition Assistant", or repartition when installing the system. In fact, there is no technical content to cut the C disk, no Third-party programs, and Windows 7 or later has its own disk partitioning feature.

Take Windows 7 as an example, the right mouse button to select the computer click on the "Management" menu, in the Computer Management window to the left of the list to select "Disk Management", the right side of the window will be the text of the current hard disk in the form of the partition state. For example, small series notebook defaults to three partitions, including "Lenovo_recovery" (for storing a key to restore mirrored backup of the partition, do not delete or destroy, or a key restore will not have), "System_drv" (Storage system and drive file partition, also do not touch), And the capacity of up to 454.82GB of c disk "Windows7_os" is the object of our cutting.

The right mouse button to select the C disk, in the pop-up menu select "Compressed Volume", the system will automatically calculate the compressed space, in the pop-up "Compressed C" window will list specific information.

Small notebook hard disk current C disk capacity of about 460GB, the system allows me to compress (cut) out of 218GB capacity for the establishment of D-disk, E-disk and other partitions, in short, C-disk minimum capacity will be limited to around 247GB.

From C disk compressed space will be "Unassigned" section named, right select the partition and click on "New Simple volume", according to the system can be a hint of this space divided into D disk, E disk ... And so on multiple hard disk partitions.

Careful child shoes may have been found, why this "compression volume" function can only let us compress the C disk about half the space? 247GB is still a waste of the C disk Ah! The reason is that this notebook has installed a lot of software before using this feature, the hard disk sector distribution is disrupted, Therefore, the C-disk compression space is restricted. If you want to "lighten" the C disk as much as possible, just found that the notebook partition is unreasonable should be the first time to use the "compressed volume" function, during which do not install any programs.
