haven't posted in a while, and finally I am getting an upgrade from my iBook G4 (10.4.11)
I think I'll be getting an iMac I have always partitioned my drives about 2/3 for the OS and apps and 1/3 for files - or writing files to. I like the benefit of having "two" drive mainly because it takes much lsee time to defrag a sammler drive however I have heard that snow leopard does not benefit from partitioning or from defragging. (could that be true?) I have always been fond of my "tool" programs to keep my system up and running at its best. Like TechTool , Drive Genius, Onyx, and of course applejack. any thoughts on if there is a reason to partition or not? thanx --Ian aka ArchivalAudio -------------------- ~ Archival Audio ~

My pleasure archival
 Thanks are the best thing here The only interest into partitioning for most users is to save some real estate on the oversized drives we have (note, you won't save that much estate now). But it won't do on the performance side if you're recording on the same drive, even on a different partition, save marginally. The most important thing after this is back up! -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
