HD question?

Postby 757200ba » Fri Feb 15, 2008 12:13 pm

Hi, IF you have two HD should you install Fs in the same, has windows or in the other hd?Should the fs work more "free" if it has a hd without the OS.
If not please, explain.I always thought that if the Fs is in a diferent HD than the Windows, the fs would work better.
Many Thanks

In my config:
WD Raptor for OS (10.000 RPM / 8MB cache) Makes it load faster
WD Caviar 500GB for other stuff... doesnt fill up that fast.

So it totally depends on your config...
