Looking for a bit of advice please.
I've had issues with Steam on windows in the past so I've decided I want to 'isolate' the Steam app and games from the rest of my new 2012 MBP.
So...do I:
1, Give Steam and it's games a 200-250gb partition on the internal 7200rpm HD
Or
2, Give it a 350-400gb partition on an external usb3 portable 5400rpm HD
I'm new to Macs but I've searched and read up about symbolic links, so think I could set that up alright.
Any opinions on performance issues etc? I'm not big into gaming - I like stuff like Portal, Assassins Creed etc rather than heavy shoot em ups.
What do you think? And many thanks in advance
