Improving system performance...

[Dew]

Here is what I do.

C:\ - 200GB Drive for entire system, minus games
C:\Games - Mounted 160GB Raptor

I find this gives me the greatest flexability and performance where I need it(Games), and since I normally format my hdd in six month intervals(Good housekeeping) and use a Customized XP disk, it means my annual downtime is less than 10 hours from start to finish.

4) I make a 15GB partition for Windows and Apps and use the rest for whatever else I want to do. I didnt state that 15GB should be used but thats what I use and with good reason, it works well.
The size of the windows partition is down to user preference.
Theres no need to consider moving or changing My Documents, the user profile or Program Files.

Thanks, and I should have asked you to clarify from the beginning. It would have saved time. My apologies for taking up unnecessary time.
