<snip/> Thanks everyone for the advice.
Following the KISS principle I am going to: 1. Live within the RAM can access now (just over 3Gb) 2. Use a single Linux partition (besides boot) on the larger drive This will reduce the migration to an rsync and accessing less than an extra 1Gb RAM is not worth the potential costs.
