How can I recognize between SSD and HDD, if both are already installed, and I do not want to screw up my laptop. I have drive C: Boot and D: Recover
As a rule, the SSD is usually smaller.
With the program "Crystal Disk Info" you can get more detailed information.
There's then usually a disk name and you can google.
Otherwise, the state of a SSD is also given as a percentage.
I have drive C: Boot and D: Recover
This does not mean anything, it can also be a drive with 2 partitions. CrystalDiskInfo would also show that!
Pretty sure your system disk (C: \) is the SSD and not the D: \.
If you want to be sure: In Windows, press the Windows key + Pause, then to the Device Manager and look there under drives, which are installed. You can google the label if you do not know it by heart.
D: recover is a partition of the drive
SSD = small / thin flash memory, fast read and write speed
HDD = slightly thicker, slow write read speed, you can hear them writing
there's software there then can look what you have
but you also notice that the OS boots fast or slow
The SSD is actually smaller and faster, but usually has less memory and is more expensive
The HDD is bigger and actually has more memory, it is slower but is cheaper
There are also programs where you can find out
Peanut counter on:
That just means that there are 2 drives (volumes).
How many hard drives / SSDs are affected can't be recognized. 😉
However, a hard drive / SSD with 2 drives on 2 partitions is, of course, the standard for "off-the-shelf PCs."
For a laptop I usually think that only one disk is installed.
Are not too many notebooks which are sold from the beginning with 2 disks.
Jup. Not just for laptops. Hence the reference to standard. (Laptops I count as a subset of PCs.) Is more the form - less the technique than that which deviates.)
Just go to the Disk Management - there you get an overview udn see. Also, whether both volumes are on a physical drive.
You can then display the properties of the physical work environment and you already know what you have in front of you.
