all300b Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hello all, Sorry if this a repeat question - I have searched but cannot find a specific answer. After my son took possession of my Macbook Air I now need a new computer for my music system. Was thinking of a used 2012 used Macbook Pro 13. Was thinking about taking the plunge on one of those Samsung 840 1 TB internal SSDs. My music library is only about 400 GB in AIFF. With a SSD am I still better off with TWO drives - one for the OS and one for music - or just put it all on a large SSD? What about partitioning the drive for the OS and music? Thanks very much!

Audio_ELF Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 If you are getting a 1TB drive, I can't see any need to partition it or get a separate drive for music files. Just as a reminder: ensure you back things up! Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience... While I agree "Everything may matter" working out what actually affects the sound is a trickier thing. And I agree "Trust your ears" but equally don't allow them to fool you - trust them with a bit of skepticism. keep your mind open... But mind your brain doesn't fall out. Link to comment
