and what extra heat do they give off?
For Photoshop and most NLE video editors:
- Fast main application SSD (C: drive)
- Fast secondary scratch disk & preview caching SSD (see Adobe guidelines)
- Fasting working file drive (preferably its own SSD)
- Large archive storage (HDD or SSD)
- Backup system x3
Adobe recommendations:
"Scratch disks should be on a different drive than any large files you are editing. Scratch disks should be on a different drive than the one your operating system uses for virtual memory."
Thanks for this.
I just want to make a count of actual disks needed... Also for 1-5, could you give a good minimum working TB size for each and what type of SSD... NVMe or SATA .
When you've mentioned SSD's... which is better to have in each instance? NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs?
(1). SSD... With all the different programs/applications and Operating System? NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs?
(2). SSD... Both the "fast secondary scratch disk & preview caching SSD"... all on the one disk... or 2 speterate?
(3). SSD... Fast working file drive preferably its own SSD. NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs?
(4). HDD... Large archive storage. (This I plan to make 20+TB)
(5). Backup system x3??? What do you mean here? 3 different SSD? NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs?
