Yea you're right, but I wanted to do a clean install, so partitioned it that way..:p

btw how many Partitions do you think a 1TB drive needs besides the C drive??

Don't forget to install all useful software from samsung. There was no need to clean install, it was waste of time.
IMO divide 1 TB - 100 GB (for C) by 3 and make 3 parts.

C: 100GB
D: 277GB
E: 277GB
F: 277GB

Total: 931GB (1 TB)

yea installed all software n drivers using 'easy software manager', its a really neat piece of software:)... n yea did like you said, but gave 200GB for C, other three 235GB each, there's also a 22GB recovery partition by samsung.

also there's this 100MB partition, I don't know if its needed...I Googled it and in some places it says its ok to delete it n in other's it says it should not be deleted :-?.........personally I used to delete it when I used to format my Dv6 lap, n never faced any problems. but I'm kinda skeptical now...

It is not even launched in india, he may be trolling or getting something imported model from some grey market.
Check my old posts about this to clarify why it is so.

Guys, having more partition is a better option or having less?
Also do you guys install games in Windows drive or a non-windows drive? Which is a better option and why? :)
