Hello, my laptop came partitioned. It is a 500 gb HDD that was split in half. Do you guys advise I leave it partitioned or should I delete it and expand it to the C drive?

Edit: I am not sure of the pros and cons of having the drive cut up, which is why I am asking.

It's up to you. The pro to having two partitions is you can relocate your libraries (music, pics, videos, etc.) to the other drive. That way you don't need to back anything up when you reinstall Windows. The con is less space for programs on the C:\ drive, but unless you're installing a lot of large programs like games, then it won't be an issue.
 
Yeah I pretty much only have games right now, and they are fairly large. one half of the drive is already at 60GB and it started at 250. the other is at the full 250.
