I have a large file of 8 GB and want to read in 8 parts but problem is i don't know how to read file in parts can someone help me here.

Note:-File reading here refers to converting file into byte array which can be achieved like this:-
File.ReadAllBytes("Path");

Use Stream.Read[^] instead:
C#
byte[] buffer = new buffer[blockSize];
FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
try
    {
    int count;
    while ((count = fileStream.Read(buffer, sum, blockSize)) > 0)
        {
        ... do something with the block.
        }
    }
finally
    {
    fileStream.Close();
    }
