I usually just run one partition on my HDDs but I'm building a new system soon and was considering 2 partitions on my hard drive (one for windows and the other for apps and storage). Is this a good idea or are there better ways to do this?
The main reason I am doing this is because I figured it would be easier to reinstall windows without having to move all my data off the disk first. But when I finish reinstalling will I need to reinstall all my apps again to the other partition since the registry had been wiped?
Like I said I am pretty new to the whole partitioning thing, I usually just send my songs/vids/etc to my buddies computer over the netwk then I reinstall windows and all my apps then I send everything back over. So I'm just looking for an easier way to do this.
Thanks for any help and advice, it is greatly appreciated.
