Will be building a new machine in the near future and was looking at installing both Vista and XP for backwards compatibility etc.
Firstly, I usually use a partition size of around 10GB for XP, page file etc. What would a comparitive partition size be for a Vista (ultimate) install - 20GB/30GB?
Secondly, looking at perhaps a single Raptor for the OS install and a RAID0 array of a couple of 7200.10s for programs and games. Or wouldn't I notice the difference by using a third 7200 for the OS rather than a raptor and benefit from the extra space...?
