Anyway, here it is.

Moving into the new Apparent is plugging along. Hopefully I’ll be done tomorrow. Once I have things arranged physically, I can begin organizing digitally. I got a 750Gb hard drive for my birthday; already having a 250Gb drive will push me to 1Tb. This would be enough room for roughly 30 thousand albums. The actual setup will be a bit more complicated. Here’s what I want the organization to achieve.

  • Complete backup of my Macbook
  • Installation of Windows with plenty of free space for programs
  • Installation of Linux with a starter amount of space for programs
  • A media partition that directly represents what gets put on my iPod
  • Seperate document partition for easy backup
  • Seperate page file partition for better performance
  • Extra space dedicated to future possibilities including recording television shows

I’ll post the final breakdown once it’s finished.

Busy Bee!
Jason
