The new laptops we buy usually only have two drives, C drive and D drive. C drive is used to store the system. At this time, we need to re-partition the D drive, otherwise we will put everything on one drive. Inside, it will look very messy, and it will be more troublesome to find files. Generally, we divide the laptop into C drive, D drive, E drive, and F drive. This way the files are classified, making it easier to find them, and also You can rename the D drive, E drive, and F drive.
[How to partition a new notebook (under win7 system)]
Step one: Enter the Disk Manager.
Find the "Computer" icon on the desktop of the laptop, then mouse over the phone, find the "Management" option in the drop-down list, click to open, and enter the "Computer Management" interface. Then select the "Disk Management" option in the list on the left and click Open.
Step 2: Plan the size of each disk.
The memory of the laptop is limited. At this time, we need to re-allocate the memory size of the D drive. Generally, the memory size of the C drive remains unchanged. Pay attention to the conversion unit of laptop memory, 1G = 1024 megabytes, 1 megabyte = 1024KB. For example: the memory size of drive D is 500G. If drive D is redivided into drive D, drive E, and drive F, the sizes of these three drives can be 100G, 200G, and 200G at a time. When converted into megabytes, they are 102400M, 204800M, and 204800M. .
Step 3: Partition the disk.
After opening "Disk Management", You can see the C drive and D drive on the laptop. Then we need to repartition the D drive. After selecting the D drive, right-click the mouse and select "Compressed Volume" in the drop-down list. At this time, a "Compressing Volume" will pop up. Query the volume to obtain the available space, please wait..." prompt, and then enter the partition interface.
Step 4: Enter the size of the partition.
In the pop-up " Compress D:" interface will display "Total size before compression" and "Available compression space size". Enter the calculated amount of compression space. Then click Compress to partition. In this way, a new disk will appear on the laptop. This disk does not have a drive letter yet. Right-click the new disk and select "New Simple Volume", then keep clicking "Next" and set the drive letter in the pop-up "Assign Drive Letter and Path" interface.
Step 5: Create other disks
Then we partition other disks in the new partition and follow the steps above.
【 Note] If an error occurs in the partition, we can delete the newly allocated disk and re-partition it. Right-click on the new disk and select "Delete Volume". The C drive is the system disk of the laptop, so we generally The C drive will not be partitioned. If the C drive has a large memory, it can be partitioned appropriately.
