You are getting partitions and unallocated drive space mixed up here.
Hi:
I'm not sure who is getting mixed up. I have a perfect knowledge of the
meanings of unallocated space as opposed to partitioned.
Partitions need to be created from unallocated space. Unallocated is is
just unused and unable to be used space that represents the potential
capacity
of a drive.until you create partitions on the drive. Unallocated space has
no drive letters. You can create partitions using all or only part of the
unallocated space. You cannot place data in unallocated space and you can
place
data in partitions ONLY after they have been formatted.
OEMs often Partition and format unallocated space so that they can place
data of their choosing on a PC, but most often for the recovery of OEM
bundled
programs and drivers.
