Greetings-
Photoshop 7 is on it's way. Have read and heard that previous versions wanted to have a seperate HD or partion as a ram disc to minimize drive fragmentation. Is this also an issue with PS 7 and OS X1.5?
But generally yes, a separate 'space' for the scratch disk is of most benefit where PS is concerned; on any OS. This is for both effeciency AND performance reasons.
You can probably find some specifics on this subject on Adobe's site.
oh great not only do I find out Stu scratches but .................. now I find out that the guru our keeper lives in a [size=24px]hard drive![/size] [stuned] ha ha ha

Thanks for all the feedback folks.
I'll put a partition on the 7200. 5 gig enough? Will be working with a lot of RAW files from a Canon G2 and some graphics work from time to time.
Interesting site. A truly international gathering. As a relative PS greenhorn, will probobly have more answers than questions but will contribute when I can. I've been shooting for 30 years, mostly available light B&W with rangefinders, and have been a camera repair tech for the last 18.
