Re: [Simply Computers] Re: Help (Computer Expert)

 

Your analogy is apt, but my personal opinion is that all you ever need is a
single partition - one giant drawer with lots of folders. Partitions are
nothing more than another folder deep, but instead of an easily renamed,
resizable folder, you're stuck with a folder named c: or d: with a difficult
to alter size.

Sometimes you want large drawers and sometimes small. Sometimes you want
just one large drawer.
