I have two internal HDs of the same type and speed.

Disk 1: OS, users, Lightroom catalogue, previews.lrdata, LR cache.
Disk 2: All image files.

I've been told that it's a good strategy to have the files on one disk and catalogue on the other. Therefore the above organisation.

Since I have much free space on my disks, I thought now I would bump up the LR cache size to 5'gb or so.

Now I wonder; Would it make sense to change the location of the cache to the files disk? Any expert recommendations?

Many thanks, Brad. Your first reply in that thread answered my question quite satisfactorily. ("satisfactorily" - Is that a word? English is not my first language. You know some forums have a spelling checker!)

WOW!
That's great.
I suppose I might have a talent for it.
By the way, I'm developing in lightroom right now, slides I took 2' years ago, and its so much fun. I find things in these old pictures that you'd never know was there, I'm just so glad I have a tool like LR to do these things, I'm raving, it's late...

...satisfactorialwhat?
