SSD Config help

[Liquidity]

Just got a Patriot Torq 128gb SSD.

I want to use symlinks.
Should I make the SSD house the main copy of WOW and then symlink the clones on another hard drive Or

use the SSD to house the main copy of wow and put symlinks on the SSD as well.

I'm not sure of the best configuration.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

I'd have everything on the SSD.
It will be much faster then any other drive you have, unless you have multiple SSD's.

The advantage of Symlinks is different wow configurations.
By this I mean video options etc.
Addons too, but you can easily enable or disable them on a per character basis, so this isn't much of a gain.
Running 149 clients from a single install (if your comp can handle it) isn't faster or slower then from 149 SymLinks.
The advantage is different video/sound options.

Use the SSD to put the symlinks on, otherwise you wont get anything out of the SSD in terms of performance.

I'd ditch symlinking alltogether if i had a ssd. Unless you wanted different config stuff... Maybe a future version of keyclone can add more tweaks to what it already does to config.wtf? like turn sound off on alts, etc.

So everyone, should I just run wow on my SSD with no symlinking. Here is the options that I can think of with just my SSD Drive.

Run 5 clients from the same wow.exe

Run 5 clients from the SSD symlinked from the wow.exe on the SSD and have the symlinks on the SSD as well.

Last night I played around with the 1st option a bit. I did not run 5 clients I will tery that later tonight.

Thanks again for all your help!

The way I have my wow directories set up is I have the installations/settings on one drive, but I have the DATA, and CACHE folders on the SSD.

Now that I'm no longer playing wow, I may just use my SSD for Windows 7.

My SSD only has WoW on it. I don't symlink. Everything works very well and I don't have the problems on patch day that others seem to run into. My video and sound settings have to be the same for all clients since I don't symlink, but my system can handle it.
