I'm looking for a new HD for my old PC (remember I asked about RAM a while back).
Thing is, I've got plans to dualboot Win2K and Linux. I've seen 120Gb drives for reasonable prices, but I was wondering, should I dualboot from the same drive, or buy 2 separate, smaller drives? I mean, one for each OS?
I've managed fine dualbooting off the same drive before, only problem was my old drive was too small. Not sure if NTFS/Ext3 would live happily together though.
But is it that good a plan? Would you recommend getting one big drive, or 2 smaller ones?
