The best hard drive setup in a Mac Pro

-

my 2 640 gb wdc drives have been bit flacky lately, decided let them "retire". new setup (to arrive day now) two 1tb samsung sata's , 1 480 owc extreme ssd disk.

i've done research, still in doubt.

agree responsive system, installing os x , samplers , virtual instruments on ssd , format 2 1tb 2 partitions on each. first (ones) function work drive , second (ones) function placeholder older finished projects. way used ssd system, fastest part of satas current projects , slowest part of disk long term storage.

agree? or did misunderstood something?

btw running large protools mixing sessions 120 tracks of 4 hours audio. running songwriting sessions fewer tracks (in 80s) loads of vi's.

mac pro 2 x 2.26 ghz (early 2009) 12 gb ram.

comments or suggestions extremely welcome...
 

agreed, save 1 current project on ssd you're working on it, , move when find frequent less often.
