Why should the computer hard disk be partitioned?

1. You can reinstall the system on disk C according to your own needs, without moving the data of other disks.

2. Different files are stored in different areas, and files that are not frequently modified are placed in one area, which can reduce the generation of disk fragmentation.

3. It is convenient for classified management, and folders are easy to be renamed and deleted by mistake.

4. If a certain area is poisoned, it can be formatted directly without affecting other partitions.

5. If you want to back up an area, you can use GHOST to back up the partition, which is simple and easy to operate.

6. Many people use the same computer, and everyone manages everyone's partition to avoid being confused by others.

7. You can set different partition formats to improve security.

8. You can encrypt an area (the whole area is your private space, and if you use the folder form, other contents will occupy your private space).

9. In some cases, the disk partition is damaged and cannot be read or written. At this time, dividing you into multiple partitions will minimize the loss.

10, small partition operation (formatting, backup) takes short time and high efficiency, so don't always do a whole partition.

1 1. If an area is damaged and you want to start over, you can move the data to another area for temporary storage. If it's only one area, you'd better find another hard disk to put your information on!

12, partition is relative, and the small hard disk is divided into two areas, C and D!

The main storage device for storing information in a computer is the hard disk, but the hard disk cannot be used directly and must be partitioned. The partitioned hard disk area is the disk partition. In traditional disk management, hard disks are divided into two categories: main partition and extended partition. The main partition is the partition where you can install the operating system and start the computer. Such a partition can be directly formatted, then the system is installed and the files are directly stored.
