Extended
partition
A
type
of
partition
that
overcomes
the
limitation
of
four
partitions
per
disk
drive
as
one
or
more
logical
drives
may
be
created
within
an
extended
partition.
FAT
file
system
The
file
system
used
by
MS-DOS
and
adapted
for
Windows
to
store
information
on
hard
disks,
which
makes
use
of
a
file
allocation
table.
There
are
three
types
of
FAT
file
systems
including
FAT12,
FAT16,
and
FAT32.
File
Allocation
Table
(FAT)
A
table

Graphical
user
interface
(GUI)
A
user
interface,
as
used
in
the
Windows
operating
systems,
which
uses
a
mouse
and
graphic
displays
to
interact
with
the
user.
The
goal
of
a
GUI
is
to
make
the
program
easier
to
use
than
a
text-based
application
or
operating
system
such
as
MS-DOS.

specific
type

Device
Electronics)

interface
technology
used
to
integrate
a
disk
drive
and
a
computer.
Hard
disks
using
IDE
technology
have
their
controller
built
directly
into
the
disk
drive
eliminating
the
need
for
a
separate
controller
card
in
the
computer.
Interface
The
connection
and
interaction
between
hardware,
software,
or
the
user.
Locked
File
Files
currently
in
use
by
your
system
and
traditionally
unavailable
to
other
applications,
including
backup
operations.
Examples
of
applications
that
create
locked
files
include
Oracle
databases,
SQL
servers,
Lotus
Notes
®
,
and
servers.
Logical
drive
A
portion
of
a
hard
disk
that
is
considered
to
be
a
single
unit.
In
this
context,
logical
means
“conceptual”
because
there
is
no
direct
relationship
between
the
name
and
a
physical
object.
