I plan to reformat my C drive using my HP Recovery Disk.
I have a fair amount of data to backup prior to
reformatting. If I partition my hard drive and move the
data to the new partition, will this new partition be
reformatted or only the "C" drive?
When I bought the system, it was already partitioned with
a C and D drive (the d drive containing system recovery
disk data), so I plan to make an "E" drive.
My other plan was to buy an external drive for backup,
would would like to save that money if possible.
Thanks,
Rod
