Hey all.
I just installed a Mushkin 240GB Callisto as the sole HDD on my laptop.
Would it be possible to have my OS (Win XP 64-bit) as well all of my applications installed onto it, then set it to read-only;
so I wouldn't have to worry about doing any harmful alterations to my system (or having virii infect it!) by accident,
while still being able to run the computer as normal, and store my files on external drives?
(i.e. does the OS require read-write access into the HDD it is installed into; or can it function properly in read-only mode?)
