Solved OS on Logical Drive
Hi,
I was going over some of my thread at seven forums and one of them a question was asked to me, asking why I had installed windows on a logical drive.
I have looked at my Windows 8 Install and the OS is once again stored on a logical drive.
Is there a quick an easy way to make it a "normal" drive whatever that may be without losing any data?
Hopefully I make sense

It should be safe enough to do, but I would always recommend to back up anything that you do not want to lose just to be safe.
