Hey guys, Im thinking of getting a 200-300 GB SATA Hard disk just dedicated for FS9, My Question is, should it have the OS installed on it or Can I just plug it in and Install FS on it with out a OS, I will have another 250 Gig Already on there.

 

Any Recommendations for Hard Drives from newegg?

All you gotta do is create a partition and thenformat the harddrive to NTFS, which is the default. For newegg get one the newer Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 drives will do. I use a 500gig version. And btw the ".11" is really important make sure it's in the description. You may want to pay extra and get one of the newer ES.2 drives, not quite sure what the immediate benefits are, maybe someone else can chime in on that matter.
