Mmm....Terabyte... *drool*

And partitioning is just what I did this time around. XP only requires about 10 - 15 gigs worth of space to operate smoothly, so my C: partition only has about that much; the rest is my D:.

Everything I install, I install onto my D drive. That way, if C crashes or does something, I'll still have all my prefs. Not to mention it makes it a little harder for viruses to copy themselves onto any of my precious files.

...but I backed everything up, just in case.
