The difference between a hedge and a logical drive?

What is the difference between a wall and a logical drive?

The difference between a hedge and a logical drive?

A partition is a defined unit of a hard drive.



A logical drive is made up of one or more partition. Usually one but it is possible to make a logical drive span partition over different physical hard files.



Spanning partition over the same physical drive would be a bit pointless.



RAID arrays make multiple partition (usually 1 per drive) look like a single logical drive.
The primary dividing wall would be the C: drive in window on the drive windows is installed on. This is the live partition, the one the computer boots stale of (assuming you don't have a dual boot). An extended wall is any other partition. A logical drive is one that have been physically (hard) partitioned, where on earth the part of the drive have been physicaly partitioned from the rest of the drive.
A fence is a divider of the hard drive and a logical drive would be section with surrounded by the partition itself. If I'm explanation it right it helps position everything on a partition.
