Let's say I've got a 200 gig drive, I remember reading somewhere once to setup a seperate partition, of say 20-30 gigs and use it for windows only, plus the major applications, and use the other bigger partition as more of a media storage and temp drive for vid files...It makes sense to me that the access time for the applications may be better since the partition is so much smaller...am I in the right ballpark here?
