What is Partition?
A partition is a logical division of a hard drive that is treated as a separate unit by operating systems (OSes) and file systems. This allows the drive to operate as several smaller sections to improve efficiency. For example, partitions enable users to divide a physical disk into logical sections, allowing multiple operating systems to run on the same device.
Here are some steps to create a partition in Microsoft Windows 10 or 11:
Right-click This PC and select Manage
Open Disk Management
Select the disk from which you want to make a partition
Right-click the Unpartitioned space in the bottom pane and select New Simple Volume
Enter the size and click Next
Here are some steps to format a partition in Windows 10:
Go to Disk Management
Right-click the partition you want to format, then select Format
In the Format dialog box, choose a file system, a volume label, and an allocation unit size
A hard disk can have a maximum of four primary partitions. The primary partition is the only partition that can be used to install an operating system. For example, by default, Windows stores hardware-specific files in a separate partition during Windows Setup. This enables the computer to use security tools.
Partitioning can help relieve computer-related headaches. However, it reduces usable space on the hard disk because of additional overhead from multiple OSes. Keeping your data, applications, and operating system on the same partition can be risky. If something happens to the partition's index file, your computer won't be able to boot up off that drive.
