This book was written at the time when the 20MB hard disk was about to burst upon the scene. This book was dedicated to the proposition that multi-megabyte storage doesn't have to be hard.

In writing this book, Busch took aim at the broad range of users who were in need of some help in getting the most from their hard disks. The book is filled with tips, tricks, and utilities leading to hard disk proficiency. When this book was written, DOS was still on the throne.

The first half of the book is devoted to hard disk basics. The second half of the book covers the more advanced tips and tricks to get the most out of your hard drive. In the last half of the book, for example, there are chapters on tailoring your hard disk, batch file utilities, advanced file management, hard disk security, a hard disk menu system, and hard disk backup techniques.
