multiple data partitions or just folders?
I am putting a new build together and it will have a 128 GB SSD for the C: drive and a 640 GB SATA2 HDD for data (D).
The data consists of 1) infrequently accessed stuff (Office files mostly and music), 2) frequently accessed photos, and 3) DVD rips (which will be deleted once burned to a DVD).
Is there any performance advantage to partitioning the HDD into 3 (D,E,F), one for each of the above, rather than just having 3 folders on the D: drive?
