Just got an update from the installer. He decided to use the Tera byte
Just bought a Mac Pro and plan to use it mainly as a Windows machine.
The
Mac side will mostly be for FCP.
Boot Camp will be used to set up the computer to run both Mac OS and
Windows.
I have 4 hard drives. One is a 500 Gb that came pre-installed. I bought
3 additional hard drives. One is a Terabyte drive. The other two are
500 Gb.
Tomorrow, I'm having someone set it up for me. This is what they
suggested. Could let me know if there might be a better way?
The Mac OS and Mac software will be on original drive. He's going to
partition the Terabyte drive in half. One half will be the scratch drive
while the other will act as the Time Machine back up.
The third drive will hold the Windows XP, related software and file
folders. While the last drive will act as a back up for Windows.
FWIW
Crossed posted this message on an Apple,com forum. Someone suggested I
split/partition the Tera byte drive as the scratch disk and as Windows
back up. And, to use the other 500 Gb drive as back up for the scratch
disk. That way I could be backing up automatically once an hour on Time
Machine. This seemed like the better choice, but since it's already set as
having the scratch disk and Time Machine on the Tera byte drive and has
it's benefits I'll keep it the way it is. If I have problems backing up,
I'll change the configuration.
drive to back up both the Mac and Windows and to the 500Gb drive as the
scratch disk. I am pretty happy with this configuration.
