[QUOTE="Scoobydoo, post: 3636803, member: 564934"] change the drive letter every time? on a 36gb raptor you would have about 25gb left after OS install so you could still install all programs using c: drive unless you have some crazy amount of random crap to install install game in a "games" folder on the storage D: drive. unless you install 10 new games a day i dont see how changing from drive c: to d: is that much of an issue. yes you will lose a few seconds of load times, but it wont affect game performance not true, ever heard of SSD? SCSI? YOU dont care about data security, that doesnt mean the OP or most computer user dont. Why recommend something that a person could lose hundreds of gb's of data if it fails? at least recommend backing up the data on an external drive so your gonna give up data security to save 5 seconds on loading a 5gb file? you do realize your on a car audio site correct? not everyone here pretends to be a computer genius like you and backing up data is the first step in preventing losing it! easiest way to do this is to keep the OS drive and the storage drive seperate which may mean losing a few seconds a day loading things, but it may save him/them hours in the long run [B]whatever you do backup your shit either by seperating the OS from the storage drive/partition or use an external backup drive[/B] [/QUOTE]
