I have a new Mac Pro with the stock 320 GB drive in it. I added two WD3200AAKS drives are 7K RPM with 16M cache.
I will be doing video editing as well as running parallels.
I see that some people move the Mac boot drive off the stock drive and I want to figure out if my setup would benefit from that.
My prior (windoze based) NLE software came with a utility that tested drive performance. Is there something on the Mac that I could use to determine if my new drives are faster enough to warrant the boot move?
Or does anyone have similar setup/knowledge to give me some hints to the answer. I couldn't find anything concrete by searching around.
Thanx much
Bill
