Gain ten points with a M.2 drive.
Thank you. It seems you're considering using part of the C drive for quicker performance. Your current drive holds more than 500GB, though it does have some unnecessary files.
I divided the 200 GB into a section for Windows and the remaining for games and data.
Windows automatically generates the required partitions, so you don’t have to create them manually.
My C drive only rises a bit when I add updates or install new apps. I rarely store anything there, mainly because it’s simpler to reinstall Windows later and avoid the hassle of remembering where all my files are saved. I’ve been doing this for a long time now. My friends and family just save things in the default spot that apps recommend, which really frustrates me... especially when I’m asked to do something for them and you end up wasting time restoring a backup from C.
Creating a system partition offers advantages such as simpler imaging and reduced file size. Whether you need to recover your system after an issue or just make a backup, keeping the partition small is beneficial. This allows you to store programs and system files without games (for instance). With a large second HDD (4 TB or more), the difference may be less critical since you can back up everything, but it will still require more time than imaging just the system and programs.
