Partitioning an External for two machines
Having been told by all-and-sundry that SD is wonderful, I have just downloaded the trial version and after reading the FAQ, have two questions (I shall post them separately).
Current set-up: 2 x PPC machines — laptop partitioned into 3 and the 2 internal drives on the desktop into a total of 5. I also have a Seagate FreeAgent Firewire 1TB external drive. Should I partition the external drive into 3 (partitions 1 & 2 for the Clones of the OS of each computer and the third partition for all the data from the other partitions — placed there through regular copying) OR partition the external into 8 partitions, which seems a bit over-the-top? (I use Synk to synchronize the various separate data files, by the way.) |
