[QUOTE="TEUser2K1, post: 2513596, member: 12933"] > Windows on 1TB SATA using NTFS; will be used mostly for gaming, watching films, etc. Gaming should've been better on ssd ? > this sounds interesting; first time I've heard of this. Any reason to this? Isn't it quite a few steps to have to enter BIOS & change profile every time you want to switch the OS? Considering you have two storage devices, many systems allow bios itself to prompt to select which storage device to initiate booting from. If your system allows such an option, that will be better I think, can even boot from default partition after waiting few seconds. No additional dependencies, mbr / boot sector overwrite issues, etc. Also, Linux don't have much issues reading and writing to NTFS, but that is for general data, not for Linux's OS system usage. This is how my understanding goes. [/QUOTE]
