This section describes how to change the partition sizes.

Hard disk partitioning is to divide a hard disk into multiple partitions. It allows 
you to organize your data or software on each hard disk partition more 
effectively.

The computer has a partition (C drive) only with the default settings. You can 
repartition the hard disk into two partitions: C drive and D drive, and use the 
D drive as a location to back up your data. You do not have to recover your 
computer system but use the Windows feature to repartition the hard disk. 
For information on how to create a partition, see “Creating a hard disk 
partition” described below.

You can also change the partition sizes using recovery discs.

The steps described here take as an example the hard disk partitioning to 
change the size of the C drive and create another partition.

There are two options to create a partition:
❑ Create a partition using the Windows feature.
❑ Create a partition using recovery discs.

You need to recover your computer system if you create a partition with recovery discs. 
Recovering your computer system will delete all the data previously stored on a hard disk.
