The differences in secondary partition and the primary partition is as follows:-

Explanation:

  • Primary Partition: The hard disk needs to partitioned to store the data. The primary partition is partitioned by the computer to store the operating system program which is used to operate the system.
  • Secondary partitioned: The secondary partitioned is used to store the other type of data (except "operating system"). It is created to store the necessary data to take backup.
