Hi all,
seems like I haven’t posted in ages, still read allot though, Anyways I’m getting myself a Macbook Pro after MWSF (my first ever Mac ..) while I can still get the HE offerings. So I’ve been doing loads of research into OSX etc but there is one area I’m not sure on.
Which is:
I’ve read in a magazine that keeping your system drive as clean as possible under mac is good practise probably obvious I no. To do this under windows I use a system>media>work partition setup so I’m just wondering how this would work in OSX? I no you can create partitions using the disk utility but would this mean all of the nice features built into mac OS will become unusable because my files, music>documents>photos>etc are not in there designated folders??
Like in windows you get my documents>my music>my photos etc, but these never get used due to how I use my partitions so how does this work in OSX? And how would it affect the finder etc?
Sorry I’m a bit of a n00b on mac any help would be great, and if this type of thing isn't done on mac then some help/ pointers on how you guys setup your file structure and things like keeping your system volume clean of clutter would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks
