The Hard Drive

The hard drive is the main storage medium combining large storage capacity and
rapid data access.
The hard drive contains the operating system of the computer, other application
programs and backup files. These programs and files are pre-installed on your
notebook, so you may note that some of the space on your hard drive is already
taken.
The Windows operating system cannot use the full capacity of the hard drive,
which means that there will be a difference between the capacity that the BIOS
displays and what the operating system displays. The operating system of the
notebook, further application programs and backup files are located on the hard
drive and reduce its total capacity.
The hard drive is addressed as drive C and D.
Note
Never switch off the computer while the busy indicator is lit since this
may result in loss of data. A flickering hard drive display is your
indication that the notebook is accessing the hard drive.
Usually your hard disk is divided into more partitions. The configuration of your
hard drive can be displayed and configured under "Disk Management". To
familiarise yourself with the hard drive configuration, search Windows Help for the
key word "Disk Management".
In your first partition (C:\) you will find the operating system, application programs
and the users' documents.
The second partition (D:\) serves for data security and contains additional drivers
(D:\Driver) and tools (D:\Tools) for your notebook.
Note
You will also find in two otherwise non-overwriteable partitions the
system restoration start files ( p. 87), as well as installation files for
Windows® 7. These partitions are not visible and should not be
erased.
