Hi, Would like to know if there is a "preferred" way of setting up the data directory for mySQL. The default for a database would be in C:\mysql\data. Is this the preferred way or should this be set up in another directory outside of the mysql directory? Does moving the data directory affect performance, security, etc? Most likely there is no difference but would like to see if there is a preferred way of setting this up. Thanks!
