SATA and IDE HDD partition advice
Last response: in Storage
Hi all, advice needed.
I am currently in the middle of a new build and don’t really know how to partition my hard drives. With hard drives, I have two new SATA 250gb drives and one old 160gb IDE drive (from last machine).
What will be the best configuration? I wish use the computer for video editing and gaming. I have 2gb ram in my system.
I was planning to have RAID0 for the two 250 gb as the main workarea for video editing. I will use the 160gb with three partitions - Windows system partition, pagefile partition and storage partition for music and photos.
Is this configuration wise and/or fast?
Thanks
