| Seems to me that a 120 internal drive is too small to efficiently partition. Since the Mac OS free drive space for the VM swapfile and Spotlight index (if you have it enabled), 40G seems awfully puny. I like to keep 80-100 GB free on my boot drive for that purpose. But, if you're getting good results, power to ya'. Thanks for the info about how the SSD has improved your Ae experience. I'm using my 1-2 Gb/s io RAID for my Ae and Pr caches. With both running, and several projects active, the total size of my cache folders can exceed 100 GB.
