I just recently did my first desktop system build. In it, I'm running Win 7 Ult as a clean install on a 128 GB SSD (C:\). I want to keep only OS's on the SSD and user files and other programs on the HDD (D:\), which I have done. Everything at this point is operating OK.
NOW...
I want to dual boot 7 with 8.1, still keeping only OS's and a few important applications on the SSD (which would make 8's partition there as F:\).
It seems to me that I should give the 8.1 installation its own partition on the hard drive to interact with (ie., Win 7 gets half the drive (D:\), and Win 8.1 gets the other half (which would be G:\). Am I correct?
Thanks for your help...
