I currently have the standard 'C' Drive partition on my 80GB WD Hard Disk. My question: Is it safe to create another partition after the 'C' without backing up the data first? Everyone recommends backing up the data, but is it really neccessary or are they just covering themselves? I currently have approximately 20GB of data on the Hard Disk and would prefer not to have to go through backing it all up. The program which I will be using to create the partition will be PowerQuest Partition Magic 8.0. I would especially like to hear views from those with experience of partitioning.
Thanks,
