Opinion about partitioning:
If you run a RAID 5 configuration (not common on home computers) then YES PLEASE create as many partitions as you like.... data becomming corrupt on Raid 5 is almost unheard of... if not on Raid 5.... DONT bother....
I have seen more 2nd partitions becomming corrupt after re-installing Win on the 1st prartition than not.... so yea - its a great way to assure your data safety <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> (NOT).
