Hi
I've just ordered 2 Maxtor SATA HDD's, one for the O/S and the other for
Storage, these will run off a high speed 2-port Sata PCI Card (Adaptec
ASH-1205SA) Transfer rates of up to 1.5 Gbit/sec (150 MByte/sec.) The two
HDD's I've ordered transfer rates are 300 MBps, will this be a problem?
Maxtor DiamondMax10 160GB S300 ...(For O/S)

Maxtor Maxline III 300Gb S300 16MB... (For Storage)
http://www.dabs.com/productview.asp...chKey=All&SearchMode=All&NavigationKey=0&v=2#
Basically I'd like to ask how best to set them up from anyone knowledgeable
or has a similar set-up.
I was considering;
C:\ 160GB O/S...On port 1
D:\ 300GB Storage... On port 2, then moving "My Documents" folder to this
drive.
I will be installing WinXP Home SP1 (SP2 I don't want) so I've D/L the
Maxtor big drive enabler plus diag utills etc.
So any advanced info or advice before I start would be appreciated.
