How to do hard disk partition and formatting?

 Hard Disk Partition

Hard disk partitions are called disk areas. Hard disk partitioning allows any operating system to be installed seamlessly. | Partitioning of hard disk is called logical partition. A maximum of 24 drives can be created on any hard disk through partitions. That is, a total of 24 drives can be created from C to Z of the English alphabet. A computer's operating system can adopt any of four types of file systems. These four types of file system are--


(i) FAT16

(ii) FAT32

(iii) HPFS

(iv) NTFS


| How to partition hard disk:

To partition the hard disk, the system must be run by "Boot disk" (Boot disk) and this disk must have a file called FDISK. The meaning is that the file named Fixed disk FDISK creates a partition on the hard disk. When the A drive is done, type FDISK and press Enter to start the Fixed disk setup program.

(or Press Enter)

Then partition the hard disk as needed.


Use of FDISK in Hard Disk Partition: The hard disk can be partitioned into DOS section and non-DOS section by applying the FDISK command. For this the section is primary DOS partition (primary DOS partition) and the non-DOS section is extended DOS partition (Extended DOS Partition).

After the above menu appears on the screen, type the option number as per your choice and then press Enter. Press Esc to return to the previous menu. And press Esc twice to exit the FDISK program to DOS.

How to delete a partition: To delete a partition or a logical drive of a hard disk, the command must be run in the following way--

(i) Start the FDISK program from the A drive. That is, type FDISK in drive A to enter and then the first screen of FDISK will open.

(ii) From the first screen menu, select option No. 3 ie, Delete Partition or Logical DOS Drive ie write the name and press Enter.

(iii) Type the serial number of the option from the above menu as required and press Enter. FDISK will show the status of the partition or logical drive and provide a message or information that all data on the partition or logical drive will be deleted.

(iv) Type Y to delete partition or drive. If the primary DOS partition is deleted from the hard disk, the primary DOS partition must be created before reinstalling the operating system on the hard disk.

What are the things to consider when buying a WiFi or broadband router for home, office, park and restaurant ?

Today we talk about What are the things to consider when buying a WiFi or broadband router for home, office, park and restaurant .I never like huge introduction about any topic . I always like very shortly introduce any-things to my viewers without any-type boring .So let's began the leanrning :- 1. Decide in advance how many devices you will use. 2. Decide how much space you need coverage. 3. Understand the structure of your home. WiFi signals become weak to penetrate the walls. That is why good coverage is not available. If you have a lot of walls in your house and you want to get coverage in the whole house, then you need a router with high power and wall penetration feature. 4. Decide what features you need in addition to the internet connection. Such as: - 4.1 3G 4G Modem Support- There are many routers that can use the modem. Those routers have a USB port and a one port so that broadband lines can be used. But remember that the modem must have the ability to auto-connect. Not...

What should the processor look at?

The things that we all should keep an eye on are the processor or not; 1. Clock speed 2. Number of course 3. cache memory 4. FBS 1. Clock Speed: It is also called GH2. All processors are written on. Clock speed means how fast your computer can work. That's what this signal means. The speed of the processor is known through this clock speed, how fast the calculation can be done. 2. Number of Cores: The more cores the processor has, the faster the processor can work. If I give an example to explain the matter, I hope you can understand it very easily. Suppose if a person had many hands, then he could do many things at the same time. That is, if we go to the market and buy a smartphone, then we will see what the configurations of the phone are. If we look closely at the configuration of the smartphone, we will see that Dual Core Processor, Quad Core Processor, Octa core processor, Hexa core processor, Deca core processor. This means that the dual core processor has two arms or cores, ...

What is transmission media? Introduction to different types of data transmission cables

Transmission media: When a PC communicates or wants to communicate with another PC, it has to take the help of some transmission media. The most commonly used media in the network are twisted pair cable, coaxial cable, fiber optic cable. Nowadays, the use of optical fiber is increasing greatly. Radio wave, microwave and infrared technologies are prominent among wireless media. Among these mediums, optical fiber has the highest data transfer speed. The type of medium used in a network depends on the type and location of that network. The connection system for exchanging information between the sender and the remote receiving end is called a channel. The means or methods used to implement the channel are called media. such as-- (i) Cable or wire. (ii) Common telephone lines. (ii) Radio waves. (iv) Microwave. (v) Geo-satellite systems etc. Cable or Wire: Cable is an important medium in data communication. Cables are generally used for data transfer over short range networking such as LAN...
