extended partition (n)~ 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.
