A disadvantage of fixed partitions is the severe limitation that occurs through the fixed or allocated space in the particular division. Another disadvantage of this is the loss of magnetic disc space of the total disk space available when running different operating systems on the same hard disk.

A fixed partition cannot be moved or expanded; therefore, one advantage would be that you know how much space can be used, and might keep better track of what you are using.

The disadvantage is that it cannot be expanded; once you run out of space it takes a bit of work to get a larger partition, and that may not be possible if the physical space is exceeded.
