Default Re: How many drives/partitions do you have?

Ok, here's my bit of wisdom about my drive configuration..

A: 3.5" Floppy Disk (standard unit)
C: 5 gig HD (Boot drive Win XP Home)
D: 12.5 gig HD (Main work drive)
E: 12.5 gig (This is where my games go.)
F: 16x48x24x48 DVD/CDRW drive.

I find this drive layout/use to be ideal for my needs. The big advantage to having this config is that if things go bad in windows I can reformat and install drive C: without risking any of my precious data. Drive C: ONLY has Windows and the small support files like Winzip, ACDSee, and other 'small' utilities. (I can reformat and re-install everything on C: in about 1 hour.)

Drive D: gets regular backups, and E: only has games and I do not need backups (unless I get really atached to a savegame. and even then, I just need to copy it over to D: )

F: is my latest purchase, and I find it to be working really really well. This all-in-one unit is definately a recomended component.

Nuf said, Cheers!
