I'm going to show you how to create multiple drives in Windows 8 without using any external softwares like
Paragon or any other software so
what we can do here is as you can see I have a couple of drives on my laptop when I receive my
Laptop initially, I had only one client that there was a seat rack
But I split it into another drive that II drive and allocated some memory to it about 300 GB of memory
Without using any other softwares, and I did this currently in
Microsoft Windows 8
platform so
Let's see how we can do that in order to be able to partition this
We would need to access the disk management console of
The operating system you can try to get to that this management by
Going through the control panel and navigating through the menu options and all the stuff
but there are a couple of shortcuts available, which you can use right from your desktop and
the first one is
hitting the windows button and the X button on your
Keyboard so the windows and X will bring up the disk management
Option right here and
This is an easy way to access this shortcut prompt one other way would be to
Take the mouse to the left
bottom left corner of the screen so that we get to see the tile that takes us to the Metro screen so
Keep an eye on the mouse cursor right now
Okay, I hope you guys can see the tile that has right now appeared on my screen
so what we can do here is instead of left clicking on the tile we need to right-click on it and
I'm gonna right click on it right now
There you go as you can see
I'm able to look at the dis management option over here left clicking on the tab will navigate you to the
Metro screen let me show you how that works
There you go left clicking on it is gonna. Take you to the Metro screen. I don't want that
Well what we would like to do is power over the tile and right click on it and select this management option
Ok and
here are
the drives existing on my
Laptop and here's my C Drive, and here's my Y Drive. Now. I would like to split the C Drive
Into under partition make another partition out of it, and I want to allocate about
hundred
Gigabytes of memory to it, so how can we do this here it is just simply right click on the C Drive and
Click on shrink volume
Wait for it to finish the process all right here is the amount of
Look at this option enter the amount of space to shrink in megabytes so one megabyte is
1024 kilobytes and
1024 megabytes is one gigabyte so if we want to
assign about hundred gigabytes
It would be
Unread
24
All right here you go
I'm gonna allocate about 10
2400
Megabytes so that it equals hundred gigabytes now
This is going to create hundred gigabytes off
a new drive with 100 gigabytes of free space so
In order to do this enter the amount and click on the shrink button
Keep an eye on this this has 623
gigabytes and this has 300 and here we go I
Guess I have allocated a little bit more memory, but you can do the math
Okay here is the
117
gigabytes of unallocated memory
So which means our drive is not yet created as you can see if we still have two drives
We still need some work to be done on this
What we're gonna do here is we're gonna have to right-click on this and create click on new simple volume
Here's the Vizard that says click on next and
It's gonna take up all the memory if you want to assign different memory which I don't recommend you can do that
but I'm gonna leave it at that and I'm gonna click on next and
Here you can see the list of drive letter options available you can select whatever
Option you won, or whatever letter you want to assign to the drive
I would recommend you leave this at the default option so that
it goes in alphabetical order and
That's about it and once you are done with that
Just simply click on the next
and
choose whether you want to format this volume, and if so what settings
you better leave this at the
Default settings and if this is unchecked if you see it like this make sure that this
Option the checkbox is checked
It's a good idea as a format in your drive
Whenever you create a new partition, and if you check this option the drive is going to
be formatted automatically for you windows 8
will do this automatically for you, so it's a good option to leave this and its default value and make sure that it's checked and
simply click on the next button and
Look through the confirmations all right finish
Look at that
There you go you have the confirmation and
Here we have it so we have a seat drive
We have an e drive and we have the new F
Drive with 117 gigabytes of free space now. Let's verify if this
New volume has been really created for us there you go
as you can see
We have a new volume, and I'm able to
navigate in it in and out let me see it lets me create a new file and I
Might create a test
Oops there you go
All right
There you go
So this is how you can create a new drive or partition out of your existing?
drive and allocated memory
And we I need the brilliancy of this method is that you don't have to do it
Using any external software you don't have to format your hard drive. You don't have to log out log in restart
and you know that makes it so much easier to maintain your drive and
You can keep partitioning it as many times as you want, but I won't
Suggest going more than three or four partitions because each time you create a partition
For paging purposes and for indexing purposes someone, but the memory will be taken up by the operating system
So just try to maintain a balance between
The drive the number of rise that you want and the hard drive space that you can a lot to it
to maintain an efficient balance
Overall so I hope you guys were able to follow this video, and if you have any questions
Please feel free to state them in your comments and in my next video. I'm going to show you how to
unlock it or
destroy the new partition and
Recur back the memory so in the next video. I'm going to show you how to
Take off how to delete the F partition and give back the 117 gigabytes of memory back to C Drive
So and that's going to be the part of the next video, so thanks for watching
