Number of logical drives
I think what you mean is four logicals, no primary....and the answer is yes.
My second physical drive in this machine has no primary partition, just n extended containing two logical drives (although technically an extended partition that contains the logical drives could be considered a primary inasmuch as it takes one of the four allowed primary partition places). -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "MedRxMan" wrote in message ...
