hi, I have a ten GB partition devoted to miscellaneous things. I use it for:
1) saving downloaded rpm's and tarballs
2) a place to rip dvd's and music
3) a place to download music to
4) backing up my computer whenever I need to
The only reason it would make it faster is if the games and mp3's on
If you want to speed up your system you could mount your extra HD as a
software RAID drive.
RAID0 will stripe data between two hard drives, so some blocks are read from
one drive, and some from the other effectively halving the seek time.
Software RAID is real easy to set up using diskdrake.

Hi all,
I have an extra 10GB hard drive and wondered what
would be the best use for it. Would it make file access faster
if it was used as a file drive (i.e. I install games, mp3s, etc. on
it instead of the system drive)? What else could I do with it?
