andsome Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I have never had any use for partitions. Both of my main hard drives are plenty large enough as they are. Anything else is on one of two plug in drives. The problem with partitioned hard drives is that just one partition cannot fail, the whole thing goes, so you loose all partitions. Correct me if I am wrong. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 If you're using acronis or similar to backup to a separate drive then partitioning is probably unnecessary, but if you're still on a single disk setup, a partition is a useful place for a backup copy of documents and drivers. True a catastrophic hard disk failure would kill the lot, but I've used one to reload after a reformat several times, I've never had a total drive failure.

Nothing like being cautious. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
