For optimal performance in Adobe Camera Raw and PhotoshopCS5 (I will soon upgrade to CS6 or CC), how should I distribute myOS, apps, Scratch, Caches, DNGs, and working TIFFs among thesedrives?:

 

120 GB OWC Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD

240 GB OWC Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD

960 GB OWC Mercury Accelsior SSD

(connected by Thunderbolt TB1 OWC Helios unit)

Also, probably irrelevant: multiple individual hard drives connectedvia eSATA and USB3, not RAIDed together

 

The Accelsior SSD, connected by TB1, is by far the fastest drive.Would partitioning and devoting different parts of it to differentfunctions help?

 

I'm able to fit the OS, apps, email, etc. on the 120 GB SSD. But Idon't assume that I should.

 

Here's the most relevent info about the rest of my hardware:


Hardware Overview:

Model Name:   iMac

Model Identifier:   iMac12,2

Processor Name:   Intel Core i7

Processor Speed:   3.4 GHz

Number of Processors:   1

Total Number of Cores:   4

L2 Cache (per Core):   256 KB

L3 Cache:   8 MB

Memory:   32 GB

Boot ROM Version:   IM121.0047.B1F

SMC Version (system):   1.72f2

 

Many thanks,

 

Mark
