I'm going to get a new hard drive and do a fresh install of win7 pro which I've just bought.

I like to keep my OS on a separate partition though, does anyone have any idea what a fair size partition would be to use for win7?

cheers
 
thanks for the quick responses

can you easily resize partitions on the fly in win7, or does changing the OS partition size mean a fresh install again?

I'm so used to the old days lol
 
regarding having a page file partition on a separate drive, would that still be better even if my older drives are very old

compared to a newer drive with 32mb cache etc?
 
thanks for that

did some searching around and some reading and it looks like having it on a separate drive is for the best, as you said having enough ram will probably make it redundant a lot of the time

cheers for all the help fellas
