Hello everyone,
I recently purchased a refurbished desktop (HP Compaq 8000 Elite), and want to perform a clean install of Windows 7 along with additional hardware. (It came with a 64-bit Installation CD.) What would be the best setup to utilize the three hard drives? Below is what I have:
Intel Q45 Express chipset
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz
8Gb DDR3 RAM
120GB SATA III Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 2.5"
30GB SATA III Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 2.5"
2TB Serial ATA/600 7200RPM 32MB Seagate Barracuda 3.5" (STBD2000101)
SATA II Controller
I was thinking about using the 120GB SSD for boot and programs while using 2TB HDD for data storage. Now, where would the 30GB SSD factor in here?
Any idea/tip would be greatly appreciated.
