Muaha! Partition heaven!

[BrOkEn ArRoW_29]

I have a 40GB (No emoticons that convey my true feelings).

[ken_cinder]

I've only got 120GB across 2 disks, but I've got 13 partitions and 3 Operating Systems on here. So bite me

What OSes?

 

But the more partitions the better! It's not the size that counts, its how you use it.

It's not the size that counts(but not too extreme) and it's not how you use it!!

It's how you say you use it!!!

Wha?

 

I got 6 partitions on this current machine.

One for Windows XP Pro

One for Linux (Which I barely use because the free version of RH9 is discontinued)

One for Windows 2000

One for Windows 98 :S

The apps partition (lazy ass mofo who doesn't like reinstalling certain software, also dual layers for both my XP/2k to Win98)

The big 120GB HDD for my downloads/pictures/movies.

 

The matter is, if you use XP as a default, your PC will run better using NTFS partitioned drives insted of the FAT32 format.

I have (had) a 10 GB HDD, but I screwed with some partitioning stuff and accidentally turned it into a 8 Gb HDD. Woe is me. Beat that, I dare you.

 

If I was an emo fag, I'd write a gloomy poem about it.

I have a 455 meg HDD.

 

And I still use it too.

[ugenn]

I have a 1.44mb floppy disk. And I still use it too.

[lancerx]

I have 3 disks, 20-120-250=390gb but i think i will be needing 250 or 300 gb more

 

Glyph, why did you make so many partitions? i used the hole amount, well meybe your board can't read so many gbs, right?

use partition magic and when u set it up use primary partition and you won't loose any amount of gb, trust me, i use to loose so much

I don't trust that PM7 anymore, it erased 2 of my partitions when I wanted to create another one.

 

Now I just to id the lazy way and what I think is a more safer way. fdisk owns all.

[solidius23]

i got all of my drives spread out between 2 systems all used for various reasons

Hence the "magic" in the name.

Yeah, it's sort of nice in a masochistic way when partitioning programs can crew you over if you don't know exactly wht you are doing.

I keep stuff organized that way and I prefer partitions because they take less time to defrag than a entire chunk.

 

My board can definitely read that many GBs...how does that matter when dealing with partitions? I just had to update by BIOS to let it read drives larger than 137 gb.
