Today’s computers divide digital storage into special compartments known as partitions. A partition may be anywhere from just a few megabytes in size to 500 GB. One purpose of dividing hard disk drives into partitions is to allow for safe storage of special files keeping them quarantined from viruses. Another reason we use a partition system is so that we can run what is known as a dual boot operation. Dual boot computers use different versions of Windows or other operating systems so as to better handle use of specific applications.

A benefit of using a partition system is that very often file corruption is limited to that one area. For example if one has a hard disk drive of approximately 300 GB in size with a 50 GB partition holding Windows XP and a 100 GB partition holding Windows Vista and the XP area is damaged one can reload XP version and access the files deleted by reformatting from the Vista partition. We do this by downloading a data recovery tool specifically built to help us recover formatted partition data. After we recover formatted data we can save that information to another quarantined partition.
