Are hard disk partitions a source of confusion for you? Have you ever wished you could understand exactly what hard disk partitions are? Perhaps you want to create, delete, re-size or otherwise maintain the various hard disk partitions in your PC. Or maybe you want to run several different operating systems like Windows Vista, Windows XP and Linux on your PC. You might want to organize your data better by creating more partitions.

Hard disk partitions are an important and useful concept in computers. However, they are not easy to understand, even for experienced computer users.

If you’ve been looking for an all-in-one volume about hard disk partitions, you search ends here.

I’ve been building computers for 15 years now. I started off trying to get my computer to work with the latest games in the early 1990s – and in the process went through a lot of frustration and pain.

With each computer I built, I gained valuable experience and have kept up with the latest hard disk partitioning technologies. A Guide To Hard Disk Partitions is a culmination of my experience in hard disk partitions, presented in one easy-to-read volume.

Here’s a portion of my Table of Contents in the eBook A Guide To Hard Disk Partitions. Each section in the 33 pages is explained in painstaking detail. 
 

Here’s a screenshot of one of the pages describing how to create a new disk partition in an existing hard disk:

Here’s a screenshot of a page explaining various hard disk partitioning strategies and under what conditions you should use them.

And here’s another screenshot of a page explaining how to create a partition using the Windows Disk Management tool.

“What Is A Hard Disk Partition?”

The term “hard disk partition” is really perplexing to many computer newbies. It is not a simple topic and you need to get some solid, foundational knowledge about them before learning how to best make use of them.

Most of the websites out there on the Internet either give too little information, or delve into so much technical detail that they become incomprehensible. There are also (surprisingly) very few reference books on hard disk partitions which can help you understand what they are.

That's where my eBook A Guide To Hard Disk Partitions comes in. Read it and you will be able to:

The other aspect of hard disk partitions which can be immensely confusing is the actual procedures involved with creating, re-sizing and deleting partitions.

Too many users waste a lot of time partitioning their hard disks into configurations they do not need.

Other users make serious mistakes and overwrite precious data they intended to retain.

Yet another group of users have absolutely no idea how to create, re-size or delete partitions in the first place.

If these scenarios describe your situation, then put a stop to your problems. Stop them right now.

Do yourself a favor and read my eBook A Guide To Hard Disk Partitions and you will learn all the step-by-step instructions for maintaining hard disk partitions. Whether you want to do a simple partition re-size, create a new partition, or delete an existing one – it’s all here. I’ve held nothing back.

Learn the precise steps for creating, re-sizing or deleting any hard disk partition you want, under any kind of scenario. You’ll be up and running in minutes instead of hours. Use simple tools in Windows or Linux to maintain the hard disk partitions you need. Don’t spend tons of money on complex disk partitioning software and waste time reading their manuals. Learn only the steps you need and nothing more - so you can go in, create that hard disk partition and start using it in record time. Learn from my mistakes so you don't have to go through the pain and frustration I had when I first experimented with partitions (e.g. accidentally overwriting data I intended to keep!). Save time because you don’t need to research the hard disk partitioning steps on the Internet – and potentially get conflicting instructions from different websites (I know – I’ve been there). Understand how to maintain partitions with no impact to your existing data and without using costly disk partitioning software. Review a list of key checks you absolutely, positively must check before starting to partition any hard disk. See which partitions can be deleted to reclaim additional hard disk space. Discover what unallocated partition space you have that is just sitting there and being wasted. Understand the risks involved in deleting a partition and what checks you should ALWAYS make beforehand to avoid these dangers.

How do I know how many partitions I need? How much disk space should I give to each partition? Do I even need to partition my hard disk?

The above are all valid questions, and very important ones at that.

My eBook has a full section devoted to the topic of partitioning strategies. A “partitioning strategy” is a concept I use to determine what how many partitions I need and what they are used for.

No matter what your usage scenario is, using my partitioning strategy guidelines, you will find out what is the partitioning scheme you need.

Running a dual boot system with Windows Vista and Windows XP? No problem. I’ll tell you what kind of partitioning strategy you need.

Running Windows XP, MS-DOS and Linux? Again, there is an appropriate partitioning strategy that is just right for you.

My power-packed partitioning strategy is something you won’t find out there in the Internet or reference books. It is my secret to partitioning hard disk efficiently and correctly each time I build a computer.

Read my eBook and you’ll be able to:

Learn about my secret “partitioning matrix” which helps you decide what partitioning strategy to use. Read about my “4 magic quadrants” which I routinely use to manage my hard disk partitions efficiently. Learn the specific scenarios under which a particular kind of partition should be used. Understand the critical factors which affect your choice of a partitioning scheme. Create the super flexible partitions which meet your needs and are easy to set up. Learn to avoid partitioning schemes that take a CRAZY amount of effort to set up. Discover the best kind of partitions to use if you want to run multiple operating systems. Discover the secrets to running multiple Windows operating systems (e.g. MS-DOS, Windows XP and Windows Vista) with a minimum of effort. Discover why running multiple Linux operating systems is a BAD idea. Determine exactly what partitions lead to a better and more efficient PC in the long run. Save massive amounts of time and effort in creating partitions by doing all your planning beforehand.

Many, many folks I know want to dual boot between two operating systems.

A very popular setup is the ability to dual boot into Windows Vista and Windows XP. This is advantageous because you might want to use Windows Vista for your everyday computing, while reserving Windows XP for games or programming work.

Then we have serious enthusiasts who want to run the ultimate flexible machine. These folks want to multi-boot between MS-DOS, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and sometimes even OS/2.

The knowledge you gain in my eBook will give you the foundation you need to create dual boot and multi-boot systems.

The thing is, once you understand the basics of hard disk partitions, creating any kind of multi-boot PC becomes easy and natural.

Get the basics wrong, then you’ll never be able to create the multi-boot scenario you want.

By reading A Guide To Hard Disk Partitions, you’ll be able to:

Save a ton of money by running multiple operating systems on a single hard disk. Feel proud that your computer can boot up and display a choice of operating systems to load up. Not everyone’s PC can do that! Play games on Windows XP so that you can get performance boosts, but yet retain the flexibility to boot into Windows Vista if you want. Avoid the technical jargon that is often involved when running a multi-boot system. Cut to the chase and just learn what you need to know. Finally understand what it takes to get up and running with a multi-boot PC running MS-DOS, Windows 98, Windows XP and Windows Vista. It’s what I call the “Ultimate Windows PC”. Avoid the pain and frustration of losing data accidentally when you set up a multi-boot system. Believe me, this happens very often and is the SINGLE biggest reason why folks avoid experimenting with partitions. Know the essentials of partitioning so that you can multi-boot Windows, Linux, OS/2, right down to the most obscure operating system out there. Save hours of your time because you don’t have to scour the Internet for bits and pieces of information. Trust me, I know how scattered the information is out there. Read my eBook and understand the basics first – then you can do anything you need to do with your partitions.
