This is good advice. Always keep your OS and data files separate. If one drive is going to go belly up then it's most likely be your system drive. You can reinstall the OS no problem, but your files? Also, make a separate partition for your swaps; that really speeds things up. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
