Web page teaching tips: Before you install Win7, have you noticed the partition problem? As the basis of computer operation, are you aware of the importance of hard disk partitioning?
until you are ready to install Win7, you have not noticed zoning issues? As the basis of computer operation, are you aware of the importance of hard disk partitioning?
Under normal circumstances, the new computer's hard drive will be divided into two C drive and D drive partition, which is the practice of builders in order to save time, but it is clear that this approach is not suitable for our daily needs And the current mainstream configuration of the hard disk is 500GB or 1TB large hard disk, how to use only two partitions! Therefore, a reasonable partition of the hard disk is very necessary. This article is based on Win7 and 1TB hard disk as an example, recommend several sets of large hard disk partitioning scheme for everyone.
system disk "I" everyone can be good
good as the system disk, its importance is self-evident. Only the system disk has enough space to ensure the stable operation of the system, in order to give full play to the overall performance of the computer. By default, Win7 system files take up about 8GB (as shown in the figure), which mainly includes system files, page files (the space occupied is about 1.5 times the memory) and hibernation files (the occupied space is equal to the memory). . Coupled with the space required for cache files, temporary files, etc., Microsoft conservatively recommends that the partition size for installing Win7 be 15GB. However, we recommend that you divide the system disk into 50GB.
recommendation division: 50GB
divided reasons: remove 8GB space occupied by the system, some of the cache files and some files have to install the software installed in the system tray which (we do not recommend you install the programs System disk, please refer to the program disk partitioning instructions for details. In this way, the 15GB space can only be said to be sufficient. However, if you want to improve the performance of the system, the system disk must have enough space to store the temporary files released when installing or running some software, as well as the swap space necessary for disk sorting. And not just the system disk, the space usage of any disk should not exceed 80%, so that the disk can run better. Therefore, we recommend that you divide the system disk as much space as possible.
Dong Master Tip: When we create a primary partition to install Windows7 system will produce a system partition size of 100MB. It is the BitLocker partitioned encrypted information store for Windows 7. About the role of BitLocker we introduced in the 32nd issue, it is not elaborated here, and the 100MB space is like a 1TB hard drive, plus its own role, so Master Dong suggested that you keep the partition. .
program disk application installed separately
mentioned earlier, we do not recommend you install the program in the system tray which, otherwise the system tray on the need for more space. Of course, if you think that it is installed on the system disk, it is more convenient to use Ghost backup. But by contrast, the program is better installed separately. This is because the program disk is the most frequently read and write operation, which means that it is the most vulnerable to disk fragmentation. If it is integrated with the system disk, it may affect the stability of the system. In addition, the software installation, uninstallation and upgrade are also very frequent, after Ghost, you need to upgrade or re-install, so the significance is not great.
recommendation division: 100GB
divided reason: With the advent of the era of big hard disk, volume and many other software is growing, after the installation space 2GB ~ 3GB is very common, For example, the World of Warcraft client installation will take up more than 10GB of space. So, please consider your personal situation settings for this disk. We recommend that the program disk be divided into 100GB space, and can also be divided according to individual circumstances and actual needs. For details, please refer to the final scheme list.
just enough but not too much disk file
our daily use of computers in the process, there will always be some personal documents need to be saved, even though these documents are not many, it will not take up A lot of disk space, but it is also necessary to separate and store one disk for each disk, which is also more convenient for us to manage.
recommendation division: 50GB
divided reason: our personal documents, mainly some family photos, videos, work documents. Relatively speaking, the space occupied by these files is much smaller. And some important documents, we suggest that you can save by burning the disc to avoid permanent loss of data caused by hard drive damage. Therefore, this disk can be freely adjusted according to individual circumstances. However, since it is a large 1TB hard drive, 50GB of space will not be wasted.
Dong Master Tip: In Win7, document libraries have provided us with basic classification, such as video, pictures, documents and music, but these folders are in the system disk directory, once the system crashes and can not If you recover, the loss is self-evident. Therefore, we recommend that you save the important files separately. If you need quick access, just create a new library in the file library.
Entertainment disk requirements, therefore the capacity
believe it home computer, is more entertainment-oriented. For example, store some high-definition movies and watch them slowly; some game clients are also necessary to save after downloading, in preparation for future re-installation; listening to music is absolutely lossless APE format. Therefore, the file characteristics of the entertainment disc are basically - big!
recommended allocation: the remaining space minus 50GB
divided reason: Entertainment disk, mainly based file storage and backup, file size generally relatively large, but the file is not read and write frequently, so It is not necessary to defragment the disk for a long time, so it is reasonable to use the entertainment disk as the largest partition among the disk partitions.
download just a good sort of a small disk
age of the Internet today, if the computer in addition to chat and browse the web most often do, I am afraid none other than non-download! For example, download the game client and the like as described above.
recommendation division: divide the remaining 50GB
reason: As the title says, just sort of a small fine. The reason why the download disk is divided separately is because this partition is the most frequently read and written area of the disk, so it is very necessary to do the defragmentation often. If the partition is too large, the disk finishing speed will be reduced; if it is too small, the file downloading will not be satisfied. So 50GB of space can be said to be just right.
Dong Master Tip: After downloading install some programs (such as Thunder, EMule, etc.), remember to change the default download path to download the disk, otherwise we lose the sense of a separate division of the yo.
final list of recommendations
of the partition scheme to 1TB hard drive, for example, other hard disk capacity can be adjusted proportionately. In addition, the actual needs of each person are different, and everyone can adjust this based on this division plan to meet their own requirements. However, we recommend that you divide up to 5 partitions. Too many partitions are not conducive to management and disk maintenance. In addition, using Win7's own disk management tools, you can do a good job of partition adjustment, formatting, etc., without the need for third-party software, due to space limitations we will not make more explanations, you can try it yourself.
