Ok, I have an 80GB Seagate with XP Pro x64 installed and working. Next week I'm getting a DS3 and a 32bit version of Windows. I also have two extra Seagate 80GB drives lying around.
My plan is to Raid 0 the two extra drives. I will temporarily connect my current drive to transfer data to the Raid array. My question is How should I partition my drives? I'm a gamer. (Mostly BF2) I'm looking to get the most performance out of my drives.
I thinking of having a Windows/Apps/Games partition. Then a Data partition, and I also want to have a 10GB partition to install Ubuntu. After formatting, I only exepect to have about 150GB of usable space. Should my Windows and Applications/Games be on a different partitions? How large should I make my partitions? I only have a few games and large apps. I don't have a lot of data now, but I download alot of stuff. (And Fraps videos are HUGE!) My "My Documents" folder is about 18GB now. Any help is appreciated! If I left anything out, pleas tell me! Thanks!
