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. In this tip, we'll shop you how to move some of your files from one drive to another to keep the drive usage equal.
Should I pay for expensive software?
