Hello, I'm building my second Hackintosh and wanted to get some advice how to best utilize my HDDs. I have 3 HDDS: 2tb NVME 1tb NVME 500gb SSD
Right now my plan is use them this way: 2tb NVME (3 partitions) -NTSF (250gb): Windows OS -NTSF (1.25tb): Windows Files (games, applications, etc) -HSF+ Partition (500gb) (Adobe AE scratch disk drive)
1tb NVME HSF+: For all Mac OS files
500gb SSD HSF+: Clover/Mac OS boot drive
I do a lot of After Effects animation on my Mac side. My understanding is it's best to have the OS on one drive, project files on another drive, and a separate NVME scratch disk for optimal performance. I figured this is the best way to do this, but I'm open to advice. I already have backup drives via a NAS/Dropbox/external drives. I'm really just looking for the best way to optimize my main system drives.
I'm pretty set on having around 1.5tb total for my Windows drive as I can defintiely utilize that space. I can also eat through 128gb of cache pretty easily in AE, so I figure 500gb would be good. I half wouldn't mind just using the 1tb NVME as a scratch, but I'm more comfortable having windows/mac OSs on separate drives.
