Hello SuSE folkz, I have two different hard drives. One of them SCSI UW/2 10K RPM 160 MB/sec and another one just a plain EIDE 5K RPM hard drive. I have Linux installed on this slower EIDE hard drive. Now my question: If I put only my database directories and web content files on faster SCSI hard drive will this approach improve or hinder the performance of the whole system? Or I should just completely move the whole Linux distro on a faster HD? I assume that database and web server daemons are running in the system's memory. Even if they installed on a slower hardware they need to be red from its partition only once during start up. Once they're running in the memory, they can read and write information on a faster hardware partition which is gonna be beneficial for the system performance. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you in advance for any thoughts or ideas. Alex
