i would strongly suggest using a separate hard disk for the operating system. it makes back up easier and takes the pressure off the main hard drive where the operating system lies.
Also when the main HDD fails you can take the data drive out of the machine and start again with NO risk. The system hdd i use is a small lap top type which is less power cooler etc so when no music is played the data drive takes it easy. -- mudlark SB3>CyrusDACX>PreXvs>ESPAudio P09B Active filter>NAP140+260A>Rhapsody, Avondale and Naim cable, Kubuntu Karmic Koala servers, various boxes for storage.
