Does that mean each Veloci should have a special 4GB partition or just 1 partition and 4GB should be used by the file?

OK cool and as far as using the drives as I described "I was thinking I'd put Vista and program installations on HD1, SQL and database software on HD 2, and media/my documents on HD 3. " how does that sound?

I just ordered a new build from NewEgg with: 1) 300GB WD Velociraptor 2) 300GB WD Velociraptor 3) 640GB WD Caviar My main needs are maintaining a PostgreSQL database that will probably only be a few gigs (but will be updated/accessed very often), running Vista, and storing a large amount...

I'm thinking I might as well just get the new system cause the processor and HD are important upgrades that my current comp is lacking

Oh I thought a Pentium D was a Dual Core. It hits almost 100% a lot.

Hmm, my current setup is a 2.8 GHz Pentium D with 4 GB RAM (Windows XP, so only uses 3 or whatever) and dual FireMV 256 MB (4 monitor 2D card) and Radeon HD 3850 (other 2 monitors). This seems like basically exactly what you think is sufficient for my needs. I've been experiencing lag while...
