can u tell me if this is a good way to organize my hds.
Drive 1 320 seagate
Partition 1 C 50 gig): (Os/apps/games,pagefile --> what size here if i have 2 gig mem?) is it better to have your "program files folder "with all your apps on a new partition or keep it all together?
Partition 2 D: (100mb): temporary file partition holding temp and temporary internet files
Partition 3 E: the rest of the space
Create a folder on E: for each user account. Call it ?Account Name?s? Folder
Move each user's "Desktop" and "My Documents" folders to their folder on E:
IE and OE users should move both their Favorites and Email store folder to their folder on E:
Downloaded programs: Original downloads preserved to assist in future reinstallations -> should this be on a new partition?
Drive 2 200gig seagte
Partition 1 G: (3gb?) for pagefile. how big should my pagefile be if i have 2gig mem then?
Partition H: the rest of the space backup of os,
apps, movies mp3s, etc in seperate folders
please tell me if this setup is good or needs significant changes. im not sure how to back up properly so advice would be much appreciated in that area. i created this setup looking at other forums and searching the web.
