Hey there. I have a 40gig UDMA Hard disk, and am looking to upgrade my rig to XP Professional, clean format. I'm a bit of a novice - never partitioned my drive before, but I've heard it's worthwhile. So I have some questions-
1) What program should I use to partition the drive? FDisk?
2) What are the pros and cons of partitioning the drive?
3) How large should each of the partitions be?
4) Are there any walkthrough guides out there?
5) How do I perform a low-level format of my existing drive?
6) Any additional tips/advice I need before I do this?
Cheers
Angyman.
