What HDD should I install FSX to?

Postby Brett Hill 2 » Mon Nov 03, 2008 12:49 pm

hi

I have decided to do a complete Hard drive Defrag am wipe down and start on a new clean plate.

I have also got 2 hard drives, I have installed my windows Vista 32bit home prenium on a 250GB 7200rpm Seagate HDD with average speed etc, and I also own a 80gb 7200rpm Seagate HDD with average speed etc. What is the best arrangement, what HDD should I install fsx on and what HDD should I have all my other files like pictures and music etc? What will give me the most performance from my system for fsx?

My system spec:

ASUS P5N32 SLI PRENIUM
ASUS 8800GTX 768mb GPU
1x 250GB Seagate HDD 7200rpm (has windows installed on it)
1x 80GB
3GB OCZ gold plated ram
Q6600 intel core 2 quad

its the old Payware PSS concorde which is only mean to be compatable with fs2004, but i realised the all the exterior was compatable, so i figured out i shall take a pic and modify the coulours a bit and make it into a signature
