I may easily have the terms wrong, but I hope what I mean comes through.
New computer. As of last night with a SATA Barracuda 400 gig drive for pictures with a 50 gig partition for Photoshop to use for it’s swap file.
Should I set this drive to wait & write when it feels like it (write behind/cache/?) or to write at once as if it were removeable media?
Win-XP-Home, 1 gig chip memory (until budget lets me double it), Photoshop CS.
Last night I was working with a file that, counting all layers, was reported as being over 800 mB so the best setting is needed information.
Thank you,
Bill
