Hi,
I've just upgraded my computer. I now have two 160GB SATA hard disks running RAID-0 striped. I also have a 80GB 7200rpm Hard disk. Now here is my problem, Which disk should I install WinXP Pro on?
I was planning on doing this -
Have the RAID-0 (which windows recongizes as one 320GB hard disk) running windows and programs and all of my documents. I will use the 80GHB disk for storing an image of the RAID, my Page File and some program installers. This would be good cause i have the security of backup and the speed benefits of RAID-0 on the disk I have my OS on.
However I was thinking maybe this would be better -
Install windows and programs on the 80GB drive. Use the RAID-0 disk for my documents, backup and PageFile. Since these are the files I'd be using most (especially with my DVD/CD burner) would it not be better to have these files on the fastest disk?
Any advice would be great - also would any recommend partitioning some of the disks? If so what for?
