What are partitions and volumes?
A partition is an area of a hard disk that can be formatted and assigned a drive
letter. On a basic
disk (the most common type of disk) a volume is a formatted primary
partition or logical
drive. (The terms volume and partition are often used interchangeably.) Your system
partition is typically labeled with the letter C. Letters A and B are reserved
for removable drives or floppy disk drives. Some computers have hard disks that
are partitioned as a single partition, so your whole hard disk is represented by
the letter C. Other computers might have an additional partition that contains
recovery tools, in case the information on your C partition becomes damaged or
unusable
