Default Partitioning Horrors?

I can't think of ANY valid reason to partition discs. Particularly
ones that are currently in use. You're just asking for trouble
with NO known advantage. Dunno why anyone is still doing
this?


It is not my advice to the OP, because the situation is different, but
fairly small partitions outermost on drives work well for me, because my
daw'ing is mostly done in the edit view of Audition and because I like to
protect my os and software installation via Drive Image 7. The theoretical
speed advantage is getting irrelevant, but the small OS and software
partition has some merit in case imaging is used as backup.


Kind regards
