how to create a new disk drive in my computer

[Pranav Mehta]

please tell me this question's answer as soon as possible because i have only one disk drive i.e. Local Disk(C in my laptop & can't save my folders & files anywhere else

did you made partitions during formatting or made a single drive?

if its single then right click my computer go to manage and click disk management and then click on c drive and shrink volume

Check to see if you computer has a second hard disk drive bay. If it does you can add a second drive. If not and you have a CD drive you could possibly remove it, get a HDD caddy, and install a second drive. You could always try and external drive if neither of the aforementioned options is available to you. Another option is to buy a larger storage capacity drive and do a fresh install of everything. A last option could be to clone the current drive to a larger capacity one.

Use Windows disk management or third-party software can do this.
