Disk Partition
Have you Cluttered your entire drive with content and do not know what should be your next step? It’s obviously Disk Partition. Just make drives of specific volumes and dump your files into the respective drives. In the earlier versions, It was no less a headache to partition your drives.
Company-made Branded PC’s offer a single and sometimes  dual drives before shipping, but our requirements may need little more than that. Third party apps were available to make those partitions possible without formatting the entire drives but had their own side-effects which could put your PC at risk.
It’s possible in Windows 7 to repartition your hard disk by using the Shrink feature in Disk Management. You can shrink an existing partition or volume to create unallocated disk space, from which you can create a new partition or volume.
1. Go to Disk Management
Go to Start >Computer, right click over it and select “Manage“. Select Disk Management from the side bar.
You can also open Computer Management by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking Computer Management.
2. Shrink Volume
Select the drive you need to make a partition and right click over it to select “Shrink Volume“. It opens a new window which shows the amount of volumes to make changes. You can now shrink the existing drive to your desired limit and the rest becomes the free space to create a new drive.
3. Creating a New Drive
After entering the values in the Shrink Window, click on the option “ Shrink ” and wait for the process to complete. The time taken for the operation may be long depending upon the size of the disk and the space to be shrunk. Once the operation is completed a window appears showing unallocated space and the value is exactly the one you entered earlier. Select this unallocated space and on right clicking on it click on the option “ New Simple Volume “.
A wizard will open up. Go through the wizard and fill in the values required. Usually the value needed to enter is the same one that you entered as the volume to be shrunk.The drive newly created needs a letter to be assigned to it. Assign any letter of your choice as it does not make any difference.A Format page will appear and in it carefully notice that the File System selected is “NTFS ” . After this is done enter a name for your drive and then click on ” Next ” and then “Finish “.
Partition takes time depending on the volume of the drive and amount of volume to shrink in the existing drive. You have now successfully created a partition without formatting.
