Most laptop disk is set as only one disk partition when you

several disk partitions. But don’t create too many partitions unless they are
used for different kinds of special functions. Generally, set some space to
store system files and other is used to save user’s files.
On partition format selection, we suggest FAT32, which is not
as good as NTFS on security and management. But it runs quickly and could save
your system and data in DOS environment when your system is destroyed.
