partition the hard drive

[VidyAC]

I want to create more partitions as the laptop came with default c Drive alone

You can actually do that in Windows in the disk manager of command line via DiskPart command.  Read more here

I prefer something like AOMEI Partition Assistant for its graphical interface,

For a free utility, try GPARTED.  More info here...

I always partition drives:

c: -> Windows and programs

d: -> Data (I reconfigure default locations for documents, music, video, pictures and downloads)

e: -> shareware utilities (many portable apps)

that way I only backup the d: partition, makes it easier to reinstall Windows when (not IF) you have to reinstall everything 🙂
