* Pr: ĭnʹtərnĕts: "I hear there's rumors on the uh (pause), Internets...
how did u have a 250 GB HD, dosent the Win. XP limit it to only 137 GB?
and u should really have a partition for just games, then for all other applications.
It dosent fragment files as easily, plus it cuts down on file sizes
Type A into a Notepad document and then check to see how big it is.
For the letter A, it took up 4,096 bytes, The Letter A took up 4 KB!
If you partition it will keep your Hard Drives cluster sizes down to a low
so from 4 KB for the letter A, it can be cut in Half, same with your games and such, but it wont be cut in half, youll save about 2 MB's of space, but that really is ALOT in the long run.
But if you have a 250 GB HD and partition it as C:, D:, and E: or F: or even up to Z: (a Z drive... :D)
It CAN save SOME space.
