Hey I have a ide 250gb Hard Drive and was going to get another one. I know to set it to slave before installing it to my computer, after that will it show up in 'my computer'?
I have a few others questions too (answer what you know thanks heaps)
- To install programs to my slave/new hard drive, Do i just change the installation path when i am installing the program?
- Will installing a program on my new hard drive (The one i have now has 104gb left) make the program run any faster/slower?
- Will my computer/the programs run any faster?
- If I set my virtual memory to run on my new hard drive which will have most of it free space will it run faster than setting virtual memory on my current hard drive? and what should i set the virtual memory to be (I have 1.5gb Ram)
Final question, Can i install lets say ubuntu on my new hard drive and if so do I set it as slave or master? And how can I choose what OS to boot up at?
Sorry about all the questions but just answer what you can. Thanks!
