Well, I was originally going to store ALL APPS on 2nd partition of SDD(recall I have a 2nd 1TB HDD for data) distinct from OS partition. However, I was disabused of this strategy after reading numerous posts that one should keep OS and Apps on same partition since apps are installed in the registry and, in the majority of cases, need to be reinstalled if and when the OS is reinstalled via image. Now I'm confused again!?! Apps are MS Office, Autocad, Illustrator, Photoshop, Sketchup, photo editing app, utility apps such as anti-virus, malware as well as firefox browswer I plan to run from ramdisk...not a ton of apps.
I will plan to save downloads to data disk. For me, downloads are mainly programs (firefox, anti-virus, utilities, etc.)
