Tip 1: How to merge two local disks

One physical hard drive can be divided into several logical hard drives and vice versa. To perform this operation, there are many utilities, one of which is Acronis Disk Director.

Instructions

Install Acronis on your computerDisk Director. The installation process is intuitive and does not require any specific knowledge from you. Restart your computer after the installation is complete, and then start Disk Director and select the manual mode.

If you have data on these disks, which you would like to save, thenConcentrate all the necessary files on the partition on which you have the operating system installed, since its operation is necessary to perform this task by combining two local disks.

After you have saved all the files you need toone of the partitions, delete another partition. To do this, right-click on this section in the program window and select "Delete" from the context menu that opens. Thus, the so-called unplaced area was formed in the hard disk memory.

Now right-click on the section that you left with the files, and select the "Resize" command on the shortcut menu.

In the dialog that appears, you will see a strip,visually representing the entire partition space. But since after us there is an unplaced area after the partition, the empty part of this strip will be to it.

Drag the right border of the markeddisk space to the right edge of the strip. This will add the amount of memory of the unallocated disk area to the marked area, as a result of which the program will schedule the operation to merge.

The icon is activated on the toolbarthe finish flag. Click on it to perform the merge operation. The program will require you to restart the computer. Confirm it in the appropriate dialog box. When the computer is booted, the program runs this task and your two local disks are merged into one.

Tip 2: What is the World Wide Web?

Undoubtedly, the appearance of the World Wide Web wasa serious and cardinal leap, supplementing, and in some cases replacing the existing picture of the world. After all, every day a global network of billions of invisible threads involves and connects all new users around the world.

History

The official year of the birth of the World Wide Web1989 is considered, when the world hypertext project was proposed by Tim Berners-Lee. The essence of this project was the publication of hypertext documents linked together by hyperlinks, with the aim of facilitating the search for documents by CERN scientists, where Tim worked at the time. He developed URIs, the HTTP protocol, and the HTML language, all without which the modern Internet can not be presented without. And hypertext documents are the same numerous sites. The world's first website was hosted by Tim Berners-Lee on August 6, 1991 on the first web server. He explained the very concept of the World Wide Web and instructions for installing servers.

Structure

The World Wide Web includes millionsWeb servers located around the world, denoted by the well-known abbreviation WWW (World Wide Web). A web server is a computer program designed to transfer data using the HTTP protocol. This program runs on a computer connected to the network. The principle of the web server is as follows: after receiving the http request, the program finds the requested resource on the hard disk and forwards it to the computer of the user who requested it. He can view the received information with the help of a special program of the web browser, the main function of which is the display of hypertext.

The principle of the World Wide Web

Hypertext documents are nothing likeweb page. And such a common concept today as a website is several web pages united by a common theme, hyperlinks and stored, as a rule, on one server. For the convenience of placement, storage, access to these resources, HTML is used, without which it is simply impossible to imagine modern site building. Users can navigate between sites and documents on the same site using hyperlinks. But the prescribed HTML file itself is not a site, until it is placed on the Internet. For the existence of each site, it needs hosting, i.e. the location of data storage on the server and the domain name necessary to find and identify a particular site in the world wide web.

Reflection of information

There are two ways to reflect information on the web: active and passive. Passive display allows the user to only read information, the active one means the ability to add and edit data. Active display includes: guest books, forums, chats, blogs, wiki projects, social networks, content management systems.

Tip 3: How to change the size of a local disk

There are many special utilities that allow you to create hard disk partitions. Disk, format, change them Dimensions and perform other necessary operations. One of the most proven and reliable programs in this area is Partition Magic.

You will need

- a computer;
- program Partition Magic.

Instructions

Run the program Partition Magic. The left column will display a list of available disks that are installed on the computer. On the right, local disks are displayed. If there are no partitions on the hard drive, right-click on it and click the "Create Partition" button.
