Seems i fail at foruming =P

I read this post this guy with a white el.guitar on his avatar about sdd drives. i wanted to ask him a question but i cant find the post now -.-

So anyway ill ask it here, is it any point having more than one sdd drive? or is one fast enough?

Im doing 4 shamans atm and had my first real AV a few minutes ago and quickly undertstood that somthing was needed ^^

My cpu,ram and graph card is ok, its just that my shitty harddrive cant deliver enough info.
Edit; My system has SATA, does SATAII work on my system or do i need a new mainboard that have SATAII?

Are you running all 4 instances off the same drive now? Do you have at least 4 separate wow folders to run the instances from?

The SDD disks are quite sexy right now but they are also quite expensive too. I would recommend getting at least 2 and preferably 4 drives(sata) to run the instances off of. If only 2 drives make sure each instance has its own folder. This should help.

I run 3 instances off 2 drives but they all have their own folders. I can run all 3 with graphics set fairly high and get 40-60fps on each instance. My hardware isnt the greatest in the world either.

2ghz athlon 64x2, 3 gigs ram, 2 80gig sata, geforce 8800gts

yeh seems like we have much of the same systems, but i run it on one harddrive. four copies of wow installed. might it altso do the trick to buy 3 other harddrives (regular ones) for each of my wows?

I would recommend that before I bought a SSD. The price for 3 cheap 20-40gig sata drives is far far less than 1 SSD. You dont need a monster 200gig if you're just installing wow on it.

Silencer is the persons handle this is the thread OCZ Core 64GB MLC SSD Review.. (Testing in progress..)

My main drive is a 10k sata II drive and my second drive is a 7200 rpm sata drive. Should I still run my data from that drive, even though it's slower? I run all 5 copies from one installation of WoW atm.

I'm running all 4 of my clones on ONE harddrive, and ONE installation - No problems, just some longer loading screens..

My harddrive is a 320gb Western Digital 7200 RPM / 16MB cache..
