After all the help I received from this forum , I finally put together and purchased my machine for video editing with Adobe CS4. The Computer is as follows: · Intel Core i7 3930K 6 Core 12MB 3.2GHZ · ASUS Sabertooth X79 ATX LGA 2011 · Noctua NH-D14 SE2011 LGA2011 Heatpipe Cooler · Corsair Vengence Low Profile 16GB 4X4 DDR3-1600 9-9-9-24 Dual Channel · Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA 6 Gbps HDD (OS/programs) · Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA 64 MB Cache HDD (media) · Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA 64 MB Cache HDD (pagefile/scratch/renders) · Corsair Pro Series Gold 850W PWR SPLY · Microsoft Windows 7 Pro · Gigabyte GeForce GTX 570 I am now ready to fire it up and get things going but I have one last question as to how to actually set up/program the HDD as I have been recommended: 1) OS/Programs 2) Media 3) Pagefile/scratch/renders (not sure what this means) Any help would be greatly appreciated. I will start a new thread for my last question so that I don’t complicate this thread with another topic. Thanks to everybody for your help. I got great advice and it forced me to do more research and learn a bit in the process. Thanks again. |
