Hard Disk Drive
Your hard disk drive, or hard drive, is the main storage for your Notebook.
This is where your files and programs are saved.
Although most Medion Notebooks ship with only one physical hard disk drive,
you may see two or more drives in this section. This is because the hard disk
drive has been
partitioned
to act as multiple drives. Partitioning the drive
allows us to store important files for restoring your Notebook to the factory
condition in case something goes wrong. Usually, the (C:) drive is where you
will store your personal files, and the much smaller (D:) drive holds recovery
information.
It is very important not to alter or delete the existing files
on the (D:) drive, or change the size of the (D:) partition.
Checking Hard Drive Space
From time to time, you may want to see how much space is available on your
hard drive.
