Dual Core? what do I do?

Hi , Have just got a laptop which is Dual Core, C & D, can someone please explain about this to me,
Does it use the second one when first is full or can I store stuff in the second drive ( seldom used stuff). Can't seem to find much info on this , I suppose everyone knows this , except a couple of us. I was going to try to save something to the second drive but thought I should ask first.
Still learning everyday,
Thanks Des,

 

Hi demon,

A Dual Core is CPU property. Its the no. of cores (or processing units) a CPU has.

C & D are hard disks. They can be two physical different hard disks or 2 logical hard disks [one physical hard disk has been partitioned or broken in 2 different disks].

I would prefer that you store all your data in the second drive (D) leaving only OS & programs in drive C. That way if anything bad happens to your OS & you had to reinstall it, you won't have to worry about your data.

Statutory warning: Always backup your data, irrespective of place of storage.
