The Hard drive

The hard drive is the main storage medium combining large storage capacity and rapid
data access.
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 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.
Whenever the computer is accessing the hard disk, the corresponding LED illuminates.
Warning!
Never switch off the computer while the busy indicator is lit since this may
result in loss of data.
If you are looking for a file on the hard drive and you know the name, go to Search on the
Start menu to find the file. Following is some general information on where you might find
some common files.
Usually your hard drive is divided into several partitions, as shown below. The partitions of
your hard drive may vary from what is shown here.
