Im partitioning my hard drive for the first time. I want to do it to increase performance. What is the name of it again, where you make a small, first partition to keep read/write speeds at their maximum?
anyways, I just built a computer for my first time. I have a 1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F3 with Win 7 Ultimate. Would 200gb be a good first partition to keep my OS, apps, and couple of games on? I have asrock's xfast RAM and want to use my RAM disk for paging file and cache. just need to learn about it a lil more.
anyways, is Windows built-in disk manager good enough, or should I install an outside disk partition utility? btw, Im not stupid and easy dumbed-down interfaces are not preferable to me, so if Windows can handle everything efficiently, than that's fine. But if there's any extras to some programs other than the easy GUI than Id be willing to download a recommended one.
