| active partition | aktīvais nodalījums (A partition from which a computer starts up. The active partition must be a primary partition on a basic disk. If you use Windows exclusively, the active partition can be the same as the system volume) |
| boot partition | sāknēšanas nodalījums (The partition that contains the Windows operating system and its support files. The boot partition can be, but does not have to be, the same as the system partition) |
| disk partition | diska nodalījums (A section of space on a physical disk that functions as if it were a separate disk) |
| EFI system partition | EFI sistēmas nodalījums (A small portion on a GUID partition table (GPT) disk that is formatted with the file allocation table (FAT) file system and contains the files necessary to start the computer and pass execution to an operating system which resides on another partition) |
| extended partition | paplašinātais nodalījums (A type of partition that you can create only on basic master boot record (MBR) disks. Extended partitions are useful if you want to create more than four volumes on a basic MBR disk. Unlike primary partitions, you do not format an extended partition with a file system and then assign a drive letter to it. Instead, you create one or more logical drives within the extended partition. After you create a logical drive, you format it and assign it a drive letter. An MBR disk can have up to four primary partitions or three primary partitions, one extended partition, and multiple logical drives) |
| Extensible Firmware Interface system partition | paplašināmā aparātprogrammatūras interfeisa sistēmas nodalījums (A small portion on a GUID partition table (GPT) disk that is formatted with the file allocation table (FAT) file system and contains the files necessary to start the computer and pass execution to an operating system which resides on another partition) |
| GUID partition table | Globālā unikālā identifikatora nodalījumu tabula (A disk-partitioning scheme that is used by the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI). GPT offers more advantages than master boot record (MBR) partitioning because it allows up to 128 partitions per disk, provides support for volumes up to 18 exabytes in size, allows primary and backup partition tables for redundancy, and supports unique disk and partition IDs (GUIDs)) |
| hidden partition | slēptais nodalījums (A partition that is not visibly exposed to the user. To create a hidden partition, set the partition type to one not recognized by Windows) |
| index partition | indeksa nodalījums (A logical portion of the search index) |
| Microsoft Reserved partition | Microsoft rezervēts nodalījums (A required partition on every GUID partition table (GPT) disk. System components can allocate portions of the MSR partition into new partitions for their own use. For example, when you convert a basic GPT disk to dynamic, the system allocates a portion of the MSR partition to be used as the Logical Disk Manager (LDM) metadata partition. The MSR partition varies in size based on the size of the GPT disk. For disks smaller than 16 GB, the MSR partition is 32 MB. For disks larger than 16 GB, the MSR partition is 128 MB. The MSR partition is not visible in Disk Management, and you cannot store data on the MSR partition or delete it) |

| partition boot sector | nodalījuma sāknēšanas sektors (A portion of a hard disk partition that contains information about the disk's file system and a short machine language program that loads the Windows operating system) |
| primary partition | primārais nodalījums (A type of partition created on basic disks that can host an operating system and functions as though it were a physically separate disk) |
| system partition | sistēmas nodalījums (The partition that contains the hardware-specific files needed to load Windows (for example, Ntldr, Osloader, Boot.ini, Ntdetect.com). The system partition can be, but does not have to be, the same as the boot partition) |
