Computer Management enables administrators to control devices and services and keep track of hardware and software performance. The Disk Management snap-in in Computer Management displays available storage devices connected to the PC. Using this you can initialize, format or partition hard disks, among other tasks. Businesses often add additional hard drives to existing workstations for backup purposes or to maximize storage space, but before the drive can be used, the unallocated space on the device must be formatted.
