Just a quickly my main gaming machine has a 500GB 7200RPM usual HDD and I am about to reinstall Windows's 7. I have a 64GB agility SSD going spare jut wondering wondering if I will get more FSX performance if I install windows on it and FSX or windows on the 500 and the 64 separate with FSX on it

 

Thanks

I'm far from an expert, but 64GB sounds rather small for Win7 or FSX. Bearing in mind depending who you listen to, folk like to keep 50% to 80% of the drive free for optimum operation.

But I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will pipe up soon..

In your position I would install Windows and essential programs on your SSD your whole computing experience wil be better if windows is optimised with a SSD. With FSX you'll probably have other bottlenecks before a decent 7200 mechanical disk is the issue. 64GB is small, I thought 128GB would be OK but it didn't take me many months before I had to upgrade to 256GB.

It's just laying around so I though it better go to some good use ill get windows installed on it and see what is left for FSX

Thanks

That's too small for FSX alone. I have a 120 almost full just FSX.

 

But id definitely put windows on it.
