If you saw photos of California's Central Valley at harvest time, taken during the 50's, you see "white guys" working the fields, hand picking the crops. They were earning money to help pay for their College education. But that all changed in the late 50's when farmers discovered that they could hire Mexican's at a far cheaper hourly rate to do the same work. So when the "white guys" showed up one year, there were no jobs, in the fields, to be had. You're bigoted statements are noted and you continue to show just how little education or understanding you have about the World. BTW, FYI, the World in not flat! Oops!...LOL!

The Windows 7 DVD lets you set up the partitions and format the drive, early in the installation process. I think 30 GB is plenty for the operating system partition. With a 1 TB drive, I would create more than one additional partition in the remaining space. It might be a good idea to add a second HD to mirror the system (and your files),in case of a HD failure.

Your choice of course, but let me make the following point: separating different kinds of files on partitions is an organizational technique, but so is separating different kinds of files into folders. The difference is that partitions are static and fixed in size, while folders are dynamic, changing size automatically as necessary to meet your changing needs. That generally makes folders a much better way to organize, in my view.

I also partition mine into separate partitions for OS, Programs, and Data. Hold over from the old days. I definitely would recommend to everybody that you keep the data you create on a separate partition. Makes it very easy to backup all your important files and in my mind that partition is less likely to get corrupted (I don't know why so don't ask me .). <Bill> Gordon wrote: > On 16/07/2010 15:20, Dave "Crash" Dummy wrote: > >> >> I also keep my applications separate from the OS as much as possible. >> One way to avoid having to reinstall apps is to use portable >> versions. > > Which is a bit difficult if you use predominantly MS applications...

Makes it very easy to > backup all your important files How you do your backups is a very good factor for helping to determine what your partition structure should be. For those people who backup only data, yes, what you say is a good reason for separating data on its own partition. But many people backup their entire drive by creating a clone or an image. For them, that reason vanishes completely. > and in my mind that partition is less likely > to get corrupted (I don't know why so don't ask me .). I won't ask you, but I'll state that I completely disagree with you. And even if it were true, if you had a good program of regular backup in place, it would hardly matter. Partition structure should *never* be thought of as any kind of substitute for backup strategy.
