Ummmm.....

What's the difference between a Primary Partition and a logical Drive?

One of my disks has been formatted as 1 Primary Partition and 4 Logical Drives during the Windows install.

The other can only be formatted as 4 Primary Partitions. I know that's a limitation of Windows but I was wondering if I've borked something up somehow?
