    In traditional hard disks, the order of division is the same as the order you actually use, so if a partition has a bad sector, then it is on the corresponding hard disk track of that partition.

    SSDs are different, because SSDs are designed to balance out the wear and tear of all flash memory particles, so all data is scattered across all particles, and the address is assigned by the master controller. The first task of the master is to reduce reads and writes as much as possible, so for example, if you have two partitions on your SSD, and you cut and paste a file from this partition to that partition, the master will only change the address allocation, and will not have the actual transfer like the HDD; Another task of the main controller is to balance the reads and writes as much as possible, so that the wear and tear of all particles (the number of reads and writes) is as consistent as possible, so for example, for a 100G SSD, if only 10G of files change frequently and the remaining 90G of data remains unchanged, then the 10G read and write will still be distributed to each flash memory particle.

    When it comes to dealing with bad sectors, HDDs and SSDs have similarities and differences. The common denominator is that all bad areas (bad blocks) detected before leaving the factory are all shielded; The difference is that the SSD will leave about 10% of the capacity of the spare particle, once the internal particle is scrapped, the spare particle will be automatically topped, and the user does not need to do anything else and cannot do any other steps; Mechanical hard disk is not so smart, generally after the problem has to the user to manually confirm whether it is a bad sector problem, after finding out, and then find a way to mark the sector where the bad sector is located, separate partition and shield it, in order to prevent the further spread of bad sector by reading and writing. Of course, today's mechanical hard disks also have their own bad sector repair function, but it's not that easy to use.

    The bottom line is that SSDs are valuable in terms of capacity, and addressing is virtually time-consuming, so there's no need for partitioning. Just throw away one partition to save wasted capacity. If the data is valuable, it can be backed up from the hard disk on the mounted machine.

    1. Start PE first, the following picture is the interface of PE, select one to enter.

    2. Click on the partition software shown in the figure below on the desktop to enter the partition interface.

    3. After entering the partition software, click on the SSD on the left side of the partition software.

    4. After selecting the SSD, click Quick Partition on the menu.

    5. Select one for the number of partitions, such as dividing into three plates.

    6. Click on the location shown in the image below to select the 40964k alignment.

    7. After selecting the SSD, click OK, and the SSD will be divided into three partitions.

    8. There is an active partition that can be used as a system disk.

    9. Then split the HDD and click to select the HDD.

    10. Right-click to delete all partitions, if you have a mechanical hard disk system, you don't need a new hard disk.

    11. As shown in the figure below, click OK, and all partitions will be deleted after confirmation.

    12. After deleting all partitions, click Quick Partition again.

    13. Click to select the rebuilt MBR to be removed at boot, remove it according to your personal needs, and then click OK.

    14. Then right-click on the active partition, select Deactivate Status, and click Yes. This does not boot the system.

    15. Then click again to deactivate the partition and right-click to select the logical partition.

    16. Click "Save & Change" in the upper left corner of the software, and then click "Yes". At this point, the hard disk of the computer storage device is completely used as a data disk. Unable to install the system. Unless reassignment is activated.

    Generally speaking, the capacity of the solid state disk is generally smaller than that of the mechanical hard disk, and the use of the system disk is a little more, which is also conducive to the rapid start of the system, the partition needs to see the size of the hard disk, generally speaking, the solid state disk is only considered on the partition on the 128g, otherwise it will not take long to feel that the system disk is not enough (after all, a lot of software needs to be installed in the system disk, including patches), so the mechanical hard disk partition behind can be simpler, you can see the capacity size of 100g divided into an area, Of course, some partitioning software can directly divide the hard disk into four partitions, (mainly consider your own needs).

    SSDs are already used as primary partitions, and HDDs can be used as primary partitions or logical partitions.

    As long as you boot from the SSD, it is okay whether the partition of the HDD is primary or logical. A computer can have multiple primary partitions, and it only matters which primary partition is used to boot up. The SSD can be used as a boot partition, and the HDD can be divided into several main partitions, as long as it is not activated, it does not matter.

    The logical partition is below the extended partition. If there is an SSD and an HDD, the SSD is already the primary partition, and the HDD can be used as the primary partition or as the logical partition. Different types of files can be stored in different folders, and there is no need to store them in multiple partitions.

    It is inconvenient to move and back up in the future.

    You can do without the primary partition.

    However, it is better to leave a back hand in life and work, and it is better to leave a master partition in the mechanical hard disk first.

    When something goes wrong with the SSD, the HDD can also be used.

    Partition first, then install. Here's how to fix it:

    2. After the partitioning and formatting are completed, the system can be installed, and the process is the same as using the mechanical disk.

    3. The solid-state disk is installed in the system, and the mechanical disk is used to store data.

    4. You can hang the SSD on his machine for partitioning and installing the system, and then hang it on your machine for use after installation.

    Generally, the system is installed and then partitioned, because the current windows system has its own partition, and you can use the partition in windows, that is, in the system management-storage management.

    Of course, it is to partition the system first, not only solid-state drives, all hard disks are the same, of course, there is a partitioned hard disk does not need to be partitioned again, if you feel that the space allocation is unreasonable, you can re-partition, the partition will lose hard disk data cautiously.

    Only when the area is divided can there be a place to install the system, and there is no partition, which means that this hard disk has no storage function.

    Yes, partition first and install the system later.

    After dividing the area, the system is installed.

    Summary. Under the dual hard disk configuration, the SSD solid state drive is used as the system disk, and the original mechanical hard disk does not need to be formatted. Whether it is a dual IDE hard drive, dual SATA hard drive, or IDE+SATA hard disk configuration method, when one of the hard disks is used as a system disk, there is no need to format the other hard disk.

    As long as the selected system disk is set up in the BIOS as the boot device, the operating system on the remaining other hard disk (if any) no longer works. For a system disk, it is only a data disk. When you don't need the above files, you can delete all the files directly, or repartition them as needed.

    Dear, hello shed trembling talk, your hole in this question by me to help you answer, is answering for you, please wait a while, don't be too anxious, I hope my chain touch answer can help you, solve your troubles, I wish you a happy life, good health.

    Hello, according to your problem is formatting the SSD, the HDD is not changed.

    Under the dual hard disk configuration, the SSD solid state drive is used as the system disk, and the original mechanical hard disk does not need to be formatted. Whether it is a dual IDE hard drive, dual SATA hard disk, or IDE+SATA hard disk configuration method, when one of the hard disks is used as a system disk, there is no need to format the other hard disk. As long as the selected system disk is set up in the BIOS as the boot device, the operating system on the remaining other hard disk (if any) no longer works.

    For the system disk, it is just a data disk. When you don't need the above files, you can delete all the files directly, or you can repartition them if you need to repartition them.

    Format refers to the chain and type of operation that initializes a disk or partition in a disk, which usually results in the removal of all files in the existing disk or partition. Formatting is usually divided into low-level formatting and high-level formatting. Unless otherwise specified, formatting a hard disk is usually referred to as Advanced Formatting, while formatting a floppy disk usually includes both.

    How to tell the difference between a premium hard drive.

    Format for advanced hard disk formatting.

    Hello. What do you mean by premium hard drives?

    But there's an advanced formatting.

    It will not have a noticeable effect on the pants. Technically speaking, the hard disk after Hu Li's advanced format has stronger error correction ability, and at the same time, the number of bytes read each time increases, and the transmission speed and curvature will be faster.

    If you're just partitioning, just split the SSD.

    SSD and HDD partition setting method together:

    1 First of all, we must be clear about a concept, the correct system boot method, there is only one primary partition, the other is a logical partition, and in addition to the system partition, the other partitions should not be active, otherwise it will be unsuccessful, the correct partition diagram is as follows:

    2 One primary partition and all the rest are logical partitions. That is to say, no matter which hard disk is used as the system, all other partitions must be set as logical partitions, and the rest of the active partitions are inactive. Normally, the SSD is used as the main partition and is not partitioned separately, and the HDD can be divided into 3 or 4 partitions when placed as a logical partition.

Only use the SSD to connect it, enter the BIOS, set the hard disk mode to AHCI mode, and then set the U disk as the boot disk, so that you can use the U disk to boot, and you will recognize your SSD when you enter the PE system. This will allow you to do the partitioning operation.

Run the diskgenius software (**The address is in the references), find your hard disk (pay attention to the hard disk model and capacity), right-click on it, select Search for lost partitions (rebuild partition table), and then you will find your previous partition, after the search is completed, right-click on the hard disk again, select Save Partition Table, and then open my computer, your previous partition should come out, and the data is the same as before, you can also use this software to partition, delete the original partition first, Then just create it, it's very simple. Good luck!
