For some users who are familiar with Windows, such a problem occurs frequently in many forums when they are new to Ubuntu, some time ago, some readers asked the same question:
Does Ubuntu have the same disk management tool as Windows?
The following is a brief introduction to users who are not quite clear about disk management.
Disk management is a default tool from Windows XP. It is mainly responsible for Disk-related tasks, such as creating and formatting disks and initializing disks, re-partition the disk size, specify the Partition Number, and delete the partition.
In Windows, you can use the command line tool related to disk partition management to perform disk operations. This tool is very large.
Is there such a tool in Ubuntu? The answer is yes.
Ubuntu has a very similar software called GNOME Disk Utility. This tool also allows you to view/manage your Disk partitions with all your heart and create and restore partitions. You can also use it to create and format partitions, mount and detach volume groups, and perform other disk operations.
Although this is similar to the management tool in Windows, it does not allow users to redefine the partition and volume group size, Because ubuntu does not support the drive letter.
Therefore, if you want to use a Disk management tool similar to windows in Ubuntu, try GNOME Disk Utility.
You can search in Unity DashHard DiskWhen it is turned on, it will identify the external hard disk and additional hard drive on your computer.
Once the drive is selected, you can perform disk-related operations, such as formatting, creating partitions, and managing the drive. In addition, some operations in standby mode are performed when disk access times out.
Note that when you format a disk that can be used in both Windows and Ubuntu, You must select the NTFS file system.
In Ubuntu, use the disk to configure your drive.
Enjoy the New Year!
