[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 898128, member: 32260"] Although having SSD + HDD is better, also splitting one HHD into two or more partitions is better than using only one partition (including the Windows system). [LIST=1] [*]The system partition uses many temporary files that generate disk fragmentation and can have an impact on performance. When using two partitions, this fragmentation is limited to the small system disk, so it is easy to defragment. [*]If the system is corrupted (not HDD) it is much easier to recover, especially from disk image. [*]A similar advantage happens when performing a fresh Windows installations. [*]If the disk is corrupted, then usually the bad sectors will happen on the system partition. The data from the second partition can be recovered even when the partitioning is spoiled.
