Step-1: First, format the additional partition of the hard drive.

Once the partition is created, transfer all private data to this new drive.

⇨ Select the 'Enabled' radio button here and select 'D' drive from the Options drop-down list.
⇨ Click on the Apply button and click on the OK button.
The 'D' drive from Windows Explorer will now be hided. Now whenever you want to access 'D' drive, you have to type 'D:' in the Run dialog box without typing 'D:' in the address bar of Windows Explorer. So that the drive can be accessed.
