Hi, i'm about to build a new pc(1st build). But now i'm in a struggle to select a harddrive setup. And my question is does it makes sense to use a separate drive for the os and programs. And if so which drive do you suggest(I think 100gb will be sufficient). Many thanks for helping this newbie.
PS
Any other harddrive setups are welcome of course
I've always been a fan of the two drive setup. Smaller drive (say 80-120GB) for the OS and programs and a larger (500+GB) drive for data storage. This way, if your OS becomes corrupted, your data is (generally) safe.
Look for SATA 3.0 drives with either 16MB or 32MB cache.
