Du har ingen aning om vems egendomar du tittar p\u00e5, hur mycket de \u00e4ger eller vad de g\u00f6r med marken. Men du ser tydligt var ett f\u00e4lt slutar och ett annat b\u00f6rjar. Du kan urskilja enskilda tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdar, sm\u00e5 hus, gungst\u00e4llningar och odlingar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">M\u00e4nniskor \u00e4r naturliga uppdelare och organisat\u00f6rer. Oavsett om det handlar om att dra tomtgr\u00e4nser eller om hur vi utformar och organiserar v\u00e5ra egna tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdar, \u00e4r denna uppdelning en del av livet. Det \u00e4r ocks\u00e5 en utm\u00e4rkt metafor f\u00f6r n\u00e4r vi partitionerar externa h\u00e5rddiskar. I det h\u00e4r inl\u00e4gget g\u00e5r vi igenom hur man skapar och hanterar partitioner.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vad inneb\u00e4r det att partitionera en extern h\u00e5rddisk?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Att partitionera \u00e4r bara ett annat ord f\u00f6r att dela upp. N\u00e4r du partitionerar en extern h\u00e5rddisk delar du upp den i specifika segment. De flesta h\u00e5rddiskar, inklusive externa, levereras med en enda partition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>T\u00e4nk p\u00e5 en enda partition som en stor hink d\u00e4r alla filer p\u00e5 disken lagras. De flesta installationer av Windows och Mac OS inkluderar operativsystemet, program och personliga filer i en enda partition. Men det finns ett s\u00e4tt att dela upp den stora hinken i flera mindre.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vissa enheter levereras till exempel med en andra, mindre partition. Den \u00e4r avsedd f\u00f6r \u00e5terst\u00e4llning om n\u00e5gon del av h\u00e5rddisken eller enheten slutar fungera. Men det finns m\u00e5nga andra sk\u00e4l till att du kan vilja partitionera din externa h\u00e5rddisk.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Varf\u00f6r ska man partitionera externa h\u00e5rddiskar? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Att partitionera en extern h\u00e5rddisk f\u00f6rb\u00e4ttrar inte bara prestandan, det underl\u00e4ttar ocks\u00e5 \u00e5terst\u00e4llning om disken skadas. Och det finns fler sk\u00e4l:<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy backups<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">N\u00e4r du lagrar personliga filer som musik, foton och dokument i en egen partition blir s\u00e4kerhetskopiering enkelt. Ist\u00e4llet f\u00f6r att kopiera alla systemfiler och program beh\u00f6ver du bara s\u00e4kerhetskopiera det som verkligen \u00e4r viktigt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dina data \u00e4r ofta b\u00e4ttre skyddade n\u00e4r de ligger p\u00e5 en separat partition. Det h\u00e4r kan vara mycket hj\u00e4lpsamt vid en system- eller h\u00e5rddiskkrasch. \u00c4ven om du m\u00e5ste installera om operativsystemet, finns dina personliga filer kvar efter installationen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Better security<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Om du partitionerar din externa h\u00e5rddisk kan en ov\u00e4ntad (och lycklig!) bieffekt vara att dina data skyddas b\u00e4ttre mot skadlig programvara. Vi rekommenderar absolut inte att du s\u00e4ger upp ditt antivirusprogram, eftersom partitionering inte \u00e4r en vattent\u00e4t l\u00f6sning. Men data p\u00e5 en separat partition har st\u00f6rre chans att klara sig vid en attack.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hur du partitionerar en extern h\u00e5rddisk <\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Att ompartitionera dina diskar f\u00f6r b\u00e4ttre prestanda och struktur kan verka sv\u00e5rt.
