How do I change the location of a disk partition?

Hello. It's up to you to decide which area you have.

After the hard disk is partitioned, three forms of partition states will be formed; Primary partitions, extended partitions, and non-DOS partitions.

In a hard disk, a non-DOS partition is a special form of partitioning, which is to divide an area of the hard disk separately for another operating system, and for the operating system of the main partition, it is a piece of storage space that is divided. Only the operating system in the non-DOS partition can manage and use this storage area, and the system outside the non-DOS partition generally cannot access the data in the partition.

The primary partition is a relatively simple partition, usually located in the front area of the hard disk, forming a logical C disk. The main bootloader is part of it, and this section of the program is mainly used to check the correctness of the hard disk partition, and determine the active partition, which is responsible for handing over the boot power to the DOS or other operating system of the active partition. If this section of the program is corrupted, it will not be able to boot from the hard disk, but the hard disk can be read and written from the soft or optical area.

The concept of extended partition is more complex, and it is easy to confuse hard disk partition with logical disk. The fourth byte of the partition table is the partition type value, and the normal bootable basic DOS partition value greater than 32MB is 06, and the extended DOS partition value is 05. If you change the basic DOS partition type to 05, you will not be able to start the system and cannot read and write the data in it.

If you change 06 to a type that is not recognized by DOS, such as EFH, DOS thinks that the repartition is not a DOS partition and cannot read or write. Many people use this type of value to implement the encryption technology of a single partition, and restore the original correct type value to restore the partition to normal.

It's up to you to decide how many districts you want to divide into.

If you can afford to lose files on your hard drive.

You can do this directly in the control panel. Management Tools Computer Management Disk Management Inside you can delete all partitions.

Then create a new partition as big as you want.

How big it should be. I do it a lot.

Anyway my new hard drive.

Nothing data!

Using a partition magician will do, but the other partition on your hard drive needs to have a large space for the data from another partition.

Is there any practical point in becoming NTFS? I don't think so, but it's making your maintenance work a lot of trouble.

1. You can rename the disk name by clicking twice intermittently on the disk name, but you cannot modify the disk letter.

2. First go to the control panel of your computer. win8 directly in the Metro bar click "Settings" > "Control Panel".

3. Enter the "Control Panel" window. Find the "Administrative Tools" option in the Control Panel.

4. In the "Administrative Tools" window, select the "Computer Management" shortcut.

5. After entering "Computer Management", switch to "Disk Management" in the left column. All disk information is here.

6. Right-click on the disk you want to modify the drive letter and select "Change Drive Letter and Path" from the shortcut menu.

7 In the popping up "Change Drive Letter and Path" window, select the Change button.

8. Select a desired letter, click OK, and you can change it.

You don't need to, just change the name under the drive letter.

What you're talking about is changing the drive letter.

First, right-click on "My Computer" and left-click "Manage" in the shortcut menu that appears.

Second, in the "Computer Management" window that opens, click "Disk Management" under "Storage", if "Disk Management" can't see it, click the plus sign next to "Storage" to see it.

3. In the window on the right, right-click the drive letter you want to change, select "Change Drive Name and Path", in the pop-up window, press the "Change" button, and in the drop-down list on the far right, click and select the new drive letter, OK.

Fourth, if the drive letter you want to use is already in use, then you need to do three steps.

For example, you should swap the drive letters of the D disk and the E disk!

First change the original D drive to F drive or the letters later, then change the original E drive to D drive, and finally change F drive to E drive.

The built-in disk management tool of the system has a weak function, and can only delete the original partition and then repartition it, that is, it cannot expand or shrink the partition space at will.

1. Modify the capacity of the existing partition of the hard disk, that is, expand or shrink the partition space, you will encounter a large number of data transfer problems, which is very troublesome and requires time-consuming and energy-consuming guarding;

2. Using a third-party disk utility, you can easily solve the arbitrary expansion and expansion operation of each partition. Such as the well-known lossless partition tool software "partitionmanager". It can run in XP, Win7 and other versions, and it is very distinctive in terms of expanding and scaling partition size, and it is very convenient to pull and drag to achieve the purpose.

And while processing the partition size, it will not hurt the data and automatically shift the data. The interface and operation are shown in the following figure:

Select the partition you want to expand and scale, and click the red letter in the preceding figure. Below is the resize window of a certain partition;

Drag and drop to reduce the capacity of the partition, and the remaining blocks are unallocated blocks. Click the "check" icon in the toolbar in the image below to perform the above task. For more detailed instructions, see "Help" in the menu bar of the window.

As you can see from the figure, your disk partition originally made the system disk in the extended partition, and now the system disk is in the main partition, so that's right. Several primary disk partitions can be partitioned within a hard disk.

In addition, since the current C drive is a system disk, you can't restore the original state by modifying the drive letter, because the system disk cannot modify the drive letter. From this point of view, the only way you want to revert to the original state is to repartition the hard drive and reinstall the operating system in a new partition. The operation is to install the partition of the operating system and set it as the primary partition.

Good luck.

Go to Disk Management. The area that includes the hard drive will be displayed. The drive letter is confused. First change the drive letter of the second hard disk to the last letter. The first one is repaired and the second one is modified.

Just change it to Disk Management in Explorer.

This is your C drive (label ACER), the partition marked Active.

A disk and B disk are reserved for floppy disks, and the hard disk partition is the first partition from the C disk, that is, the first partition of the first hard disk, of course, and so on, the F disk is the place you are looking for.

Generally, it is a C drive!! That is, the first plate.

It is usually the first partition of the hard disk

However, brand machines generally add a small partition before the partition.

That's the second partition.

You can see this by looking at the disk name of the partition.

3 divisions are only 528m, move to the starting position, there is this must or? And the starting location is generally the system partition, if the partition space in front of these partitions is large, the operation of moving partitions is very time-consuming, just transfer data, just copy the past few minutes.

If you really want to move partitions, you can do it with partition management software (Partition Assistant, Magician, DiskGenius, etc.).

Although these three partitions are not large, you may have your application considerations in this way. From a practical point of view, if there is no data in these three partitions, you can use PQ and other partition software to reintegrate the partitions, including merging and creating new partitions, which is much simpler and safer than moving partitions.
