How would you set these up?

Hi

I have the following hard drives

Intel 80gb SSD
1 X Samsung F3 1 TB
WD Caviar Black 500GB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache

How would you guys set up your system with these drives bearing in mind my main use is for gaming

I am thinking system on the ssd and games on the WD..or would i be better off using the WD for system and the SSD purely for my games

thx

I'd use the Intel SSD for OS for sure. As you said that you're using your rig for mostly games, why not put your most played games on the SSD? Then with the others that you play less frequently, you can put them on the WD.

This does depend on what games you play and the sizes of their respective install folders though.

As your board has SATA 3, using the WD for anything should be pretty nippy indeed

ssd for os, apps and games the other drives for anything else. simples.
