Setting Up a New Hard Disk | Windows 7 ~ PC Supporter

Setting Up a New Hard Disk | Windows 7 ~ PC Supporter: "Whether you’re installing Windows on a brand new hard disk or simply adding a new disk to an existing system, it’s a good idea to consider how you want to use the new storage space before you begin creating volumes. If your goal is to set up a large space for backup or media storage, for example, you might want to devote the entire disk to a single volume. On the other hand, if your plan is to establish two or more separate volumes—perhaps one for each family member on a shared home computer, for example—decide how many gigabytes you want to assign to each partition. You can change your mind later, but it’s easiest to adjust the number of volumes on a disk and their relative sizes before you’ve put a lot of data on the platter."
