sorry but this might be a dumb question...but other than seperating your drives....what purpose does partitioning your hd do?

By partitioning you can in effect have two or more computers in one, with many different operating systems. I have three primary partitions on one computer and a logical, two primary on the other with another logical.

Primary partiotns are partitions with operating systems and logical partitions i use to swap files between the partitions.

I use the partitions for different purposes. One for business work, one for general use and the other (on one of my pc's) as a spare for testing software from the net.

I only use my business partitions to make purchases from the net, because i never use any applications i don't trust on these partitions, so its very secure.
