  drives, and new dynamic volumes.
• Mark partitions active.
• Assign drive letters.

41
STORAGE TYPES
Windows 2000 supports 2 types of disk storage
BASIC
DYNAMIC
A physical disk that is managed by Disk
Management. Dynamic disks can not be accessed
by MS-DOS.
A physical disk that contains primary partitions,
extended partitions, or logical drives. Basic
disks can be accessed by MS-DOS.
42
DISK MANAGEMENT
PARTITION A portion of a physical disk that
functions as though it were a physically separate
disk. Can only be created on a basic disk.
43
PRIMARY PARTITIONS

• A primary partition is a portion of a disk that
  can be marked as active and used by the system to
  boot the computer.
• Can have up to four primary partitions per disk.
• Cannot be sub-partitioned.
• Multiple primary partitions allow isolation of
  different operating systems or types of data.

44
EXTENDED PARTITION
Can only be created on a basic disk. Created from
free space. Can only be one extended partition on
a hard disk, so you should include all remaining
free space. Are not formatted or assigned drive
letters. Divided into segments called logical
drives. Logical drives are assigned a drive
letter and formatted with a file system.
