    All on one or split for SSD


    Hey peeps,

    I have been looking at SSD's as i think its about time to upgrade.

    At the moment i have 3 HDD's (As per my system specs below)

    The way i have my PC set is WD Caviar Black 500GB for OS and apps
    WD Caviar Black 750GB for games
    WD Caviar Blue 500GB for Media

    (I do have an external for backup)

    I do it this way so i don't one HDD doing everything as i have a tendency to play a game with WMP playing and most probably have Firefox or IE9 open.

    What my initial thought was, was to have 2 separate SSD's for OS and Games keeping a HDD for Media.

    Would it be a good idea to have separate SSD drives or will 1 SSD suffice.

    All advice is greatly appreciated.

    I think you would be fine with a single SSD for your OS, games, and applications

    have you looked into RAID - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia at all?
