Would it be better to have two hard drives? My OS one is going to be the 300 gb veloci raptor hard drive. But for the second one should I even have one Clap and if so which should I get. Ouch

I got the 500 GB as the one to use for pictures, music, and general stuff. I am using the speedy 300 Velociraptor for OS and gaming.

By the way,  if you go with the 1 TB drive it will take a long tme for disk maintenance etc.  If you need an extra TB I would suggest two 500GBs instead.

I generally tend to delete things I don't use so yeah.. should I still get another drive that's smaller for non gaming and OS?

I personally am trying to be sure that the Velociraptor has only the OS and games so that it doesn't get cluttered up with stuff that doesn't need to load fast.  This will allow me to be sure there is always room on the fast drive for new games.
 
I like the idea of a secondary drive but there may be those on the forum with other recommendations.  Lets see what they have to say.
