hi i tried this once but i don't think i noticed much difference but i heard if you partition your drive and put your operating system on it will it boot faster? my theory is when you partition the drive the files on that partition doesn't get fragmnentated with the other files on other partitions, increasing seek time is this true and does it improve performance? cheers
In the past, I always had XP on my C drive, programs on D and games on the E drive. Did it help with speed, not sure! never did any benchmarks. however, it did make things easier whenever I had to re-install XP.
i :agree: as the Windows partition/s will become far more fragmented than other partition/s, can't argue with the fact that it is much easier to reinstall the OS
