When performing fdisk on a second hard drive, you are given the option of creating a second primary dos partition (Drive "c" being the first) or an extended dos partition. What is the difference and is one better than the other. Am I right in assuming that logical drives can only be created in extended partitions? Don't plan, at least for the moment, creating any logical drives.

Running Win2000pro

TIA
