Making the most of your PC storage
Most Windows laptops and some desktops now come with the main hard drive split into 2 partitions, so if you've bought a PC with a 1TB hard drive, you will find that you have 2x 500GB partitions, usually labelled as C and D. This can start to cause problems if you fill up the C drive as it's not easy to move space from one drive to the other.
