How to Align Intel SSD Partitions in Windows 10, 8, 7

Geeks - To align the partitions on an Intel SSD in Windows 10, 8, and 7, you can use the Disk Management tool. Here's how:

Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

Type "diskmgmt.msc" into the Run dialog box and press Enter to open the Disk Management tool.

Right-click on the Intel SSD and select "Properties" from the context menu.

Select the "Volumes" tab and click the "Partition" button.

In the "Partition" window, make sure the "Align partitions to 1 MB" option is checked.

Click "OK" to apply the changes and align the partitions on the Intel SSD.

Keep in mind that aligning partitions on an Intel SSD is not necessary for all situations. It may be helpful in certain cases, such as when using certain older operating systems or when using certain types of software that require aligned partitions. However, modern operating systems, such as Windows 10, automatically align partitions on SSDs when they are created, so aligning partitions manually may not be necessary in many cases.
