Many people, have only one partition on their computer. This means that all of your operating system, program, and documents are on the same logical drive. As a result, if your operating system crashes, it is more likely that you will loose all of your documents. In order to avoid this, you should partition your drive into 3 segments. One partition for your operating system and program files, one for your operating system paging file, and one for your documents. For example, if you have a 40 GB hard drive, we recommend 15 GB for the OS and Programs, 5 GB for the paging file, and 20 GB for your documents.
This configuration will help to limit your exposure to crashes, and get you back up and running quickly. |
