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 ~
