Hi
I would certainly put in a sata SSD disk as C drive and make the other drive a spare drive for temp files and working files for premiere. Copying the RAID drive onto another disk and make it bootable is not quite easy . Maybe you should make a copy of your Cdrive and deactivate your adobe programs before you try that. Some companies apply software to copy your C drive to their drive. I have a C drive (Raid0 2xSSD drives) I want to copy to a single Solid State Disk but have not had the guts yet.... |
