Big Grin

I was thinking about partitioning the SSD for the OS only or OS plus programs. It will get whatever we use for security, Office, pretty much the full Adobe suite, Faststone, Filezilla, and EXIFTool. I'd like to also use the SSD for actually working with the files. We'll be getting stuff in batches so I won't have to work with everything at once. Using the SSD for the programs too should speed things up. Plus this way the regular HDD's, I was planning RAID 5 there, would just be used for storage of the files.

Anyone got any advice on partitioning SSD's?
