3. Formatting Hard Drive
In order to use a hard drive, or a portion of a hard drive, in Windows you need to first partition it and then format it. This process will
then assign a drive letter to the partition allowing you to access it in order to use it to store and retrieve data.
All hard disk management is done in the Disk Management Administrative Tool. Follow these steps to open this tool:
1. Click on the Start button and select the Control Panel option.
2. If in Classic control panel mode, double-click on the Administrative Tools icon and then double-click on Computer Management icon. If
your control panel is in the Category view, click on Performance and Maintenance, then click on Administrative Tools, and finally
double-click on the Computer Management icon.
3. When the Computer Management screen opens, click on the Disk Management option under the Storage category. This will present you with
a screen called The Disk Management Screen.
To make a partition from the unused space you would do the following.
1. Right click on the space listed as unallocated.
2. At the menu that comes up, click on the New Partition option.
3. You will now be presented with a wizard as to how you would like the partition to be created. At the first screen press Next.
4. At the following screen, determine if you need a primary or extended partition. Most people will be fine selecting Primary Partition. Select
Primary Partition and press Next.
5. At the next screen you will be prompted to type in how much of the unallocated space you would like used for the new partition. Regardless,
of what you decide, you need to enter a size in the Partition size in MB: field, or stick with the default size, and press the Next button.
