Hi, currently using a single WD 250gig SATA drive with my system. I'm looking to get a second hard drive, maybe a WD Raptor (SATA).

What I want to do is have all Windows and Program files on the Raptor, and everything else on the second drive. Few questions I have :-

- Would the swap file be better on the Raptor or the 250gb drive? Would it be better in its own partition?

- I've looked at the MS Knowledge Base article on moving the Documents and Settings folder to another location. Will this mean all temp files, internet temp files, cookies and so on get stored in wherever I move the Documents and Settings folder to?

- Any other hints and tips?

Cheers
