Hi all,

Currently running Gutsy by itself, but starting to consider putting another Windows partition down pretty much just for games.

I run Ubuntu just for surfing, music and work. So it doesn't take up a huge amount of space, although needs room to expand as my music collection does.

Now to the point. In terms of performance am I better dual booting off one large hard disk. Or keeping Ubuntu on one hard disk and buying another one for Windows?

Any advice greatfully received.

Cheers

Well, if you have 2 hard drives it's easier to install, also if a hard drives crashes both OSs don't go down.
