Prices for electronics in Canada are considerably higher than they are in the USA.

Four years ago a friend of mine in Detroit bought a large screen TV. I think he paid $1,999.00  or $2,999.00 for it if I recall right.  Rediculously cheaper than what I've ever seen them sold for here.  I priced that same TV  here at almost $6,000.00 the day after he told me he bought one.  He was flabbergasted to see the price difference.

I wasn't kidding when I said that whatever the price is in the USA, it's double up here.

I don't know why I want my hard drive split into 3 portions. I just thought that's what you do when you partition it,  lol

All I know is that I've been told that you should partition a large hard drive so that if you have to reformat you are only reformating part and not a whole 250 gig one.  This way I can put my poser runtimes on one part of the hard drive and if my computer requires a reformat I don't have to worry about losing everything because I can move stuff to a partitioned area of the hard drive that won't be affected by the reformat.

Is there a better way to do it than what I posted?
