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...

Seperate OS and gaming HD is recommended setup.

My primary is a Seagate (ST3160023A) 80GB 7200, 8mg cache (That

where the OS is).

Secondary is a Western Digital (WD800JB-00JJCO) 160 GB 7200, 8mg

cache (where FS is with the folder for adss)

Many thanks.
