I have a 120 gig HD and an 80 gig drive that I use in a mobile rack for cloning backups with Norton Ghost (currently using Ghost 2002). I am about to do a clean install of Windows XP Pro. I am plannng to put XP on a 20 GIG primary partition. I thought I would make an extended partition of the remaining space and divide into a 40 gig logical for application installation and the rest as a logical partition for file storage. I will install XP NTFS. A technician told me to make the second 40 gig application partition FAT32 for better performance.
Is this the optimal patitioning strategy?
Should I use NTFS or FAT32 for the logical partitions?
Thanks.......bb
