Your Lenovo ThinkPad R50 has 4 drives because your hard disk was divided into 4 partitions. Deleting a partition is a little bit compalicated and technical where computer technicians can perform the job. The creation and deletion of partition are done during the installation process of Windows Operating Systems. However, you may also use the Windows Disk Management utility software but it is not advisable if you do not have enough knowledge about computer hardware. I have tutorial videos below on how to delete or create partition.
