Explanation

FDISK is a disk partitioning utility that creates and modifies partitions on hard drives. It does not perform low-level formatting (done by format commands), fix bad sectors (done by scandisk/chkdsk), or recover lost clusters (done by recovery utilities). Partitioning divides a physical disk into logical sections for organizing data.
