Disc management question for a clean install
Hi all, I'm having fun and games at the moment with a backup nightmare on another thread.
I'd like to ask you experts who know the MS OS very well your thoughts on the following:
I am looking to do a clean vanilla install again and use easy transfer to move the two users on the system.
My system has the following drives:
Velociraptor 10K 300gb drives x2
250gb drives x2
500gb drive x1
Currently the 10K volumes are in a raid 0 and hold everything - all users folders, the whole shooting match.
The 2x 250gb drives are sitting idle, I had planned to have each user holding one drive for their files, however I did a test with my own user folder and some files wouldn't move and others deleted etc
(in mac OS we just use location manager to 'point' a folder like 'user saverio' to another volume - and it's that easy.)
The 500gb volume is currently acting as a dump; scratch discs, disc ISO's and music folders backup etc.
If you had these volumes, how would you organise your system? Would you raid or not?
thanks for your thoughts in advance and I look forward to seeing how the experts would do it!
