Just my thoughts....
Help Me Skin DX
Published on December 5, 2012 By RedneckDude In OS Customization

I'd like to get an idea how many drives/partitions the average user has. It will help me to determine the best number of drives to leave space for when I use the self expanding drive meters I use in my DX themes.

I have 5 drives/partitions, more when using a flash drive or SD card. So I like space for 7 or 8.

 

But if the end user only has one or two, there'll be a lot of wasted space left over.....looks funny.

 

Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you guys would tell how many drives/partitions you have.

 

 

EDIT: Please omit CD/DVD drives as they do not show up in the meter.
