#173332 - Still don't see that partitioning helps Responding to: ???'s previous message |

I believe the real advantage ... is that one can minimize the amount of writing and reading from the physical drive and thus keep the heads of the drive closer to the information pertaining to task at hand. But that could only work if each "task" had its own, separate, physical drive. As far as the physical drive mechanism is concerned, having multiple partitions is no different to just having a folder structure in a single partition. |
