So I just built my computer, I have 2 hard drives, both 7200 rpm, one is 160gb and one is 500gb. So basically, I want to instlal and have both Vista and XP, and will be doing alot of video editing and some gaming.
So i was wondering what is the most adventageous way of installing these operating systems on my computer?
Will I want to partition one hard drive and put both operating systems on it, and use the other hard drive for data, etc? If i do that is it fine to save programs like adobe photoshop onto the other hard drive and then run it from both operating systems? Will I experience a decrease in performance?
Or will I want to install XP on one hard drive and Vista on the other? I read for video editing it is good to have a seperate dedicated drive for something.. not too sure what they mean.
THanks
