    i was just looking at my disk manager and i noticed that one of my partitions was labled as a logical drive. im just wondering what that is. thanks.

    It means that your one physical hard drive is split into several logical drives that Windows assigns drive letters to.

    Think of it in these terms - a PHYSICAL drive is the actual drive itself...a Logical drive is a portion of one of those PHYSICAL drives...but it can also be the whole drive as well, it depends on how large you set the logical drive to be...but I think Nodsu just said that...
