Windows comes with a built-in utility called fdisk. This program is used to
partition a large hard drive into smaller virtual drives. One advantage of having
two smaller virtual drives is the decreased downtime while running
applications such as ScanDisk or Defrag.
To use fdisk to partition a hard drive, follow these directions:
1. To open fdisk, left-click the Start menu, select Run or Hold, and
release the Windows button + R.
2. At the command line, type "fdisk" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
3. When fdisk opens you'll be asked if you'd like to enable large disk
support. "Y" should already be selected. Hit Enter.
4. Next, you need to set the current fixed disk drive to equal your newly
installed hard drive. To do this, select 5 from the list and press Enter.
5. Find the number next to your new drive, type it into Enter Fixed Disk
Drive Number, and hit Enter. (In most cases, if you just added a
second hard drive, the number from the list will equal 2. Before you
proceed, double-check that the current fixed hard drive is equal to the
new hard drive you just installed. If it is, you should see any number
other than 1 next to Current Fixed Drive.)
6. This will take you back to the beginning screen.
7. From here, select 1 to "Create DOS Partition or Logical DOS Drive"
and hit Enter.
8. Select 1 to "Create Primary DOS Partition" and hit Enter.
9. Your computer will begin to verify the new drive's integrity. This
process will only take few minutes to complete.
10. The next screen to appear will ask, "Do you wish to use the maximum
available size for a Primary DOS partition?" Press Y if you only want
to create one partition or N if you'd like to create multiple partitions on
the drive. Then hit Enter.
