Installed Drives
Dell performs the installation
and setup on hard-disk drives that are shipped as part of a system. After
being installed, hard-disk drives that are part of a system configuration
are formatted and partitioned before the operating system is installed.
The drive is ready for use when you receive your system.
For the Microsoft Windows 95
operating system, EIDE drives smaller than 8.4 GB use a 16-bit file allocation
table (FAT16) file system with a 2-GB primary partition and extended partitions
of 2 GB or less. Drives larger than 8.4 GB use a single partition with
the 32-bit file allocation table (FAT32) file system.
For the Windows 98 operating
system, all drives use a single partition with FAT32 file system.
For the Windows NT 4.0 operating
system, all drives have a 2-GB primary partition that uses the FAT16 file
system and a secondary partition formatted in the NT file system (NTFS).
