A partition is an area on a disk. A volume is a partition that has been assigned a letter. Don't all partitions have letters assigned?

PMS, thank you very much! I printed your post because it teaches so much. I'll also put it on the "Best of CL" thread My list looks like this and I'm running from Hitachi_XP I'm going to rethink my backup strategy, especially as it relates to cloning the system partition. Related question to you and all: If you HAD to get a new PC today, would it be Windows 7 or would it be Windows 8? I lean towards Win 8 because it will stimulate the grey matter - at first. First I have to research how many programs I'd have to replace. Regards Gottfried
