Hey guys, I have a 2.8Ghz P4, 512 RAM, 80Gb HD, 80Gb slave drive, WinXP Pro, M-Audio 2496 interface, Yamaha MG10 mixer, Cakewalk HS2002. Should I install the Cakewalk on the main drive and store the audio files on the slave? Or install Cakewalk AND store the audio files on the slave? Also, what applications should I shut down before recording (anti-virus, etc.)? How do I tell which processes are critical to the OS and which ones don't need to be running? I've tried to end a few processes to use less of the CPU, but I always end up upsetting the OS and it shuts itself down. I want to be sure that I don't experience any latency or dropouts due to the computer running crap in the background. Thanks to anyone who can show me the way.....
 
Thanks. Anyone else have any guidance related to what hard drive I should set up on?
