    I'm reloading XP and will have a Raid 0 array with 3 partitions. Partition 1 - 10GB for XP
    Partition 2 - 30GB or so, for drivers and programs
    Partition 3 - about 450GB for storage.

    Question: I'll be transferring alot of VHS tapes to DVD. Some of those VHS tapes are extended play, or about 6 hours in length.
    If I install Nero 6 OEM Suite on partition 2, is it possible to use Nero to work on my video editing on partition 3, where there is the most space. Or do I need to install Nero on partition 3 if that's where I want to do my encoding, downloading and editing of video files?
    Thanks
    HC

    The program and the data do not need to be on the same partition.

    Thanks for the reply. Since I'm a newbie to video editing, I have a follow up question. Let's say I'm downloading a VHS file and want to work with it on Drive E: and Nero is on Drive D:, how do I specifically do that.

    Once Nero is running, you just browse to whatever location the file or files you want to work with are stored and then select the name of the file. Nero has wizards that will guide you. Either there will be a Browse button or an Open File window will popup that will allow navigating to the location where the file is stored as with any other application.
