A hard drive is a device used to store data in a computer, and a VPS also has a hard drive like a physical computer. Split and merge hard drives on VPS Windows depends on the user’s purpose. Used to optimize VPS use, use another partition to store important data to help users classify data, avoid risks such as errors or needing to reinstall Windows, causing data loss.
There are many ways to access Disk Management on Windows VPS, you can follow one of the following ways:
– Open the RUN command box on Windows with the key combination Windows + R and enter the command “diskmgmt.msc” then click OK
– Right-click the Windows icon in the bottom left corner of the screen, select Disk Management.
– Open This PC on Windows, right-click This PC -> select Manage -> Disk Management
– Search for Create and format hard disk partitions
Next, enter the amount of space you want to create for the new partition in the Enter the amount of space to shrink in MB box. This capacity is calculated in Megabytes (1GB = 1024MB) => select Shink to continue.
